Below are three great pictures kindly sent to us by Stanislav Surin, showing St Margaret's Church Organ safely installed and working in a Church in Slovakia. Stupava-Mast, the town where it is now kept is just across the Austrian border and can be found on Google maps!
Apparently the new owner didn't do a big dedication but never-the-less Stanislav says the Organ sounds great and looks wonderful in its new home.
