In 1950 the Alexander Schuke company built a new organ for the Schlosskirche in Schwerin. It is the first instrument built with mechanical slider chests by this company. Two registers have been placed on the pedal that came from the previous organ, an instrument by Marcus Runge from 1912-1913. In 2013, the company Alexander Schuke carried out a restoration.
