Barth Buchholz organ
In 2021, the Barth Buchholz organ celebrated its 200th birthday in St.
Marien Barth. The impressive instrument attracts hundreds of guests to St. Mary's Church every year for the famous summer concerts. An organ was mentioned for St. Mary's Church Barth as early as 1451, which was rebuilt and extended in 1597 by the Stralsund master organ builder Nikolaus Maaß. Even though it was repaired and modified by Christian Kindt, also from Stralsund, from 1785, it soon no longer met the requirements of the time. Above all, the transfer of Western Pomerania to Prussia in 1815 created a climate for radical changes. The Berlin firm of Carl August Buchholz (1796-1884) was commissioned to build a new organ in Barth. The contract was signed on July 12, 1819, all parts of the organ were completed on February 18, 1821 and it was handed over to the congregation on August 31, 1821. Later, several modifications and extensions were carried out by the Grüneberg organ building workshop in Szczecin. In 1917, a large proportion of the pewter pipes had to be given away for war purposes and were later replaced by zinc pipes. The organ case was made in Barth. The organ façade in its present form was also created after 1856 in connection with a thorough redesign of the church's interior. A last major repair was carried out in 1964 by a company from Görlitz. Between 2001 and 2003, the organ underwent a complete and extensive restoration. The organs in the church in Tribsees (1831) and the Nikolai Church in Stralsund (1841) also originate from the workshop of C. A. Buchholz.
