In 1821 Christian Roetzel built a new organ with one manual and attached pedal for the Sankt Antonius Abbas-Kirche in Herkenrath. In 1973 it was moved by Romanus Seifert & Sohn to the Filialkirche in Bärbroich. The organ was no longer in its original state. In Bärbroich it was placed on the organ gallery, while in Herkenrath it was placed in the balustrade. The Schulte company carried out a restoration in 2007/2008. The organ was placed on a plinth, a Subbass 16' was placed on the pedal and everything else was cleaned and repaired where necessary. Schulte also carried out a re-voicing.
