Aarhus. Cathedral

The organ
The main pipe organ was built by the organ builder Lambert Daniel Kastens in 1730. He was a student of one of Europe's best-known organ makers, Arp Schnitger of Hamburg. It has been restored, enlarged, and updated several times, but the baroque facade has been maintained. The majority of voices in the current organ are built by the organ builders Th. Frobenius & Sons between 1928 and 2001. With 89 voices it is now Denmark's largest church organ. In 1885 Robert William Otto Allen became an organist.
