The remains of Schnitger’s wind supply: Six wedge bellows and original canals by Schnitger, reconstructed bellow house by Ott (The organ is normally powered by a blower which by-passes the bellows system. But the bellows are fully operational, to be treaded by one or two persons) Source: http://www.schnitgerorgel.de
