Allinge Kirke, located in Allinge-Sandvig on the island of Bornholm, Denmark, is home to a historic organ built by A. H. Busch & Sønner around 1894. This organ is a fine example of the Romantic style of organ building, featuring 6 stops and a single manual with a pedalboard.
The organ has maintained its original tuning in equal temperament, which was a popular choice during the late 19th century as it allows for the most versatile use across different keys. The modest size and historical significance of this organ make it a treasured piece within Allinge Kirke, contributing to the rich musical heritage of the church and the surrounding community. The organ's preservation over the years highlights the importance of maintaining historical instruments in their original state, providing a direct link to the musical and cultural practices of the time it was built.
