- In 1840-1842 the parish church Sankt Johannes Baptist in Wuchzenhofen was built. Peter Paul Braun built an organ for this church in the years 1844-1846. However, the interior was completely replaced in 1915 by a new pneumatic instrument of the Gebrüder Späth.
- The front pipes were requisitioned in 1917 and were replaced a few years later by new zinc pipes. The organ was overhauled by Martin Gegenbauer in 1983.
