The installation of the organ has caused mechanical deterioration on the pavement and vertical walls of the niche. Apart from the already mentioned recent, mechanical deteriorations, traces of various inorganic soiling have been found, e.g. black crust. On certain surfaces subflorescence and efflorescence are visible on some stone sculptures, indicating a possible presence of harmful soluble salts.
