Summary/Abstract: This paper describes two churches of a twin-like construction: the first erected in 1890 in Doruchów and the second built 10 years later in Zielona Wieś, based on the same general architectural blueprint. The organs in both churches were constructed alongside the buildings, the first built by Johann Spiegel and the second instrument completed by his sons Karl and Albert, with only minor changes to their father’s design. This paper is based on the original records from Doruchów and Zielona Wieś parishes’ archives, complete with the author’s photographs from the temples and instruments inspection.
