New organ for St. Vitus Cathedral to arrive in few weeks

The new organ for the gothic St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague will arrive in Czechia in a few weeks' time but will remain in storage for at least a year, Czech daily Lidové noviny reported on Friday. Due to the huge weight of the musical instrument, the floor where the organ will stand has to be reinforced before it can be placed there. Visitors should be able to view and hear the instrument, made by renowned Spanish organ-maker Gerhard Grenzing, in the cathedral in around a year's time.
