Pehr Strand (c. 1758–1826) was the most prominent builder of organ clocks in Sweden around 1800. Strand built in the so-called Berlin tradition, but with clock cases decorated in the typical Gustavian style. The music on the barrels are examples of the typical repertoire performed at different venues in Stockholm, and published in the periodical Musikaliskt Tidsfördrif. A micro-history of the organ clock at the Lövstabruk Manor describes the current position of the research field, and provides, with related sources of different kinds, a reference point for a call to researchers from other fields to contribute in their respectively area of expertise.

The instrument built in 1728 by the Gdańsk organbuilder Andreas Hildebrandt and quite well preserved to this day in Pruszcz Gdański is the first example of the architectonic concept, which Jan Janca described as the Grańsk prospect (Danziger Prospekt). The organ from Pruszcz Gdański was probably partly rebuilt as early as in the 18th century and the changes were made in the instrument’s disposition. Around 1900 the maintenance work was completed by Otto Heinrichsdorff from Gdańsk. In 1929 the organ was once more restored, this time by Josef Goebel from Gdańsk. It was probably during the maintenance work at the beginning of the 20th century that the position of some registers of the windchest was changed. In 1972, Józef Mollin’s organbuilder company reconstructed the pipes looted in 1945 based on the then current state of knowledge, and in 1999 the same company did maintenance work of the instrument again. Further maintenance work was completed between 2009 and 2010 by Tomasz Szałajda and in 2016 by Zdzisław Mollin. In its initial one-manual version, the instrument had direct counterparts, one of them was the instrument built in 1738-1739 in Wocławy and the second one was the organ made by Cahman and preserved in Lövstabruk. The article presents the results of new instrumental studies on the construction changes made to the organ from Pruszcz Gdański throughout the instrument’s history and it outlines maintenance-related perspectives connected with its future. The importance of Hildebrandt’s organ in Pruszcz Gdański is enormous in the context of huge losses in Gdańsk’s landscape resulting from WWII. It is the only existing example of a larger type of organ from the 18th century near Gdańsk, which still allows for recognising its initial shape and having enough source information about its reconstruction.
