An organ of the Gebrüder Stumm stood in the Evangelische Stadtkirche in Sankt Wendel from 1864 to 1934. It was converted by Walcker in 1934 and the originale facade was removed. Further modifications followed in 1951. A new organ was built in 1988 by Peter Vier, with the still existing pipework and a windchest from 1864. It is a copy of Stumm's instrument with twenty registers.
