DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
Friedens United Church of Christ was organized in 1893, and the Clinton Street building was dedicated in 1903. The Hinners organ is the second at Friedens; the first was purchased by the church's young people and cost $196.00. Although no further details about it are known, it was probably a reed organ.
The 1908 organ originally stood in the rear gallery, and was relocated to the front of the room during the 1930s. It cost $1,700, of which the Carnegie Foundation gave $900. There are 20 registers, 14 ranks, 799 pipes, and it can still be hand-pumped. In 1996, Friedens Church merged with Immanuel Baptist Church on nearby Nott Terrace. The Friedens building is closed.
