Carl Wagner built an organ for the church of Hochstadt-Oberdorf in 1864. It replaced an organ by Franz Seuffert from around 1800. This organ was sold to the church of Mörlheim, but was never placed there due to lack of space. The instrument was demolished in 1869. The new organ was renovated in 1915 by Franz Kämmerer. He replaced the pedal's slider chest with a cone chest. In 1968 Werner Owart restored the organ. The Flauto Dolce was renewed by him.
