  • The company H.W. Breidenfeld & Söhne built a new organ in 1897 for the Sankt Petruskirche in Hilbringen. It was a one-manual organ with thirteen stops. The organ was installed in a neo-Gothic organ case and had pneumatic action with cone chests.
  • The organ was rebuilt and expanded by Herbert Schmidt in 1981-1982. He made new slider chests and a mechanical key action. Since then, the organ has twenty-seven stops on two manuals and pedal.
