  • In 1988 the Führer company built a new organ for the Evangelische Kirche in Kelzenberg near Jüchen. The prospect of the organ is from an older organ. It dates from 1902. In 2010 the organ was put up for sale in connection with an increase in the number of seats in the church building. It was bought by the Sankt Cyriakusgemeinde in Schapbach. However, the sale of the organ case was blocked due to historic preservation, because it had to be preserved for Kelzenberg.
  • In Schapbach there was an organ by Wilhelm Schwarz from 1904 behind a baroque front, but this prospect was too small for the Führer organ. The Vleugels company restored the instrument and transferred it to Schapbach. They were able to place it in a Wilhelm Bader organ case from 1923-1924, built in classical style for the Katholische Pfarrkirche in Hornbach.
  • On October 20, 2013, the organ in Schapbach was inaugurated with a concert by Matthias Degott.
