Hendrik Ahrend.
The Pastor of the church Peter Golon is searching for more information about the balustrade. This balustrade was present until 1959 and was probably sold. Read his
text with more information about this balcony. (Text in German)
For collecting money to restorate the organ a foundation "Arp Schnitger Kreis" has been created:
