The stunning baroque organ inside the Stadtkirche, town church, of Winterthur.  Equally impressive are the wall paintings by the Bernese painter Paul Zehnder.  The person who sent it to me is a music student, of organ music in particular and plays this organ.  What a privilege that must be!

  2. Yes, I think it's stunning, but when I looked it up there was little said about it.

  3. That is a pity - I always like to know more about these things!
