Summary/Abstract: In the article is carried out an instrumentological analysis of the Rieger Brothers of Jägerndorf (Krnov) organ dismantled in August 2015. The instrument, built in the Tuchów parish church 100 years ago, is part of the company’s numerous organs in the Tarnow diocese and in Poland in general. The first part of the article outlines the circumstances of assembly and repairs of the organs until they are dismantled. The second part focuses on the description of the instrument: chorus, case, bellow, console, tracker action, windchest, and instrumentation, along with a schematic display of the pipe system inside the cabinet. The third part is an analysis of the sound structure including the discussion of vertical and horizontal scale and the membership of individual voice families.
