Europe's Largest Musical Organ

St. Steven church is always under repair.  The inside looks great.  The Organ Recital was fair. 

"Passau‘s Cathedral organ is now considered the largest catholic church organ in the world and Europe´s biggest organ with its 17.974 pipes and 233 stops. It is nowadays the official number five in the listing of the worldwide largest pipe organs. The organ of the Cathedral of St. Steven is outstandingly unique and truly a technical marvel, with its 17.974 pipes, its 233 ringing registers and its five carillons that could all be played from one console.
