The International Festival “Organ Summer” is an annual event in  the Evangelic Lutheran Church in Nida since 2002. The organ of the Evangelic Lutheran Church (former Neringa  History Museum) in Nida was built by Vilnius’ Organ Workshop in  1984. Since then annual summer organ festivals were organized by  Lithuanian National Philharmonic Society in the church. They were  rather popular among the listeners and almost all famous Soviet  organists have given concerts there.  The international festival “Organ Summer” continues the longevous  tradition of Nida’s organ festivals. Its aim is to introduce the  different organ schools and brilliant interpreters of organ music to  plenty of holidaymakers. We offer to our listeners the stylistically  broad repertoire and strive for presenting of great expression  possibilities of this instrument. Currently, “Organ Summer” is the  only one regular event representing the professional organ culture  on the Curonian Spit. In 2012, concerts of the Festival will be held on June 9 - 30.  Nida’s Evangelic Lutheran Church This church was built in 1888.  During the Soviet period a  museum of Curonian history and  ethnography was functioning in  the building of Nida’s church. In  1989, the church was returned  back to the local Evangelic  Lutheran community.
