St. Leonhard
St. Leonhard stands in Dinkelsbühl, Bavaria, within a town known for its preserved medieval architecture. The church’s present structure dates from 1844.
An earlier chapel occupied the site during the twelfth or thirteenth century. The Thirty Years’ War destroyed that original building. The rebuilding preserved a place of worship and a landmark reflecting regional architectural and cultural history.
An organ by English builder Alfred Kirkland forms one of the church’s notable features. Nine registers serve two manuals and one pedal. Mechanical action operates both stops and keys, with couplers including II/I, I/P, and II/P. Restoration in 2018 followed its transport from England to Dinkelsbühl. Combination pedals serve the Great and Swell divisions.
