- In 1894-1895 Heinrich Voit built a new organ for the Protestant Church in Westheim in the Palatinate. It is a two manual organ with eighteen registers. It was dedicated on March 24, 1895. In 1899 the tower was struck by lightning. The organ has been restored by Franz Kämmerer. He replaced the Kornett with a Fugara 8'.The original front pipes were removed in 1917, and were replaced in 1925 by the Poppe company from Offenbach. In 1939 Poppe installed a wind motor. The Fugara 8' from 1899 was upgraded in 1948 by Ernst Steuer to a Fugara 4'.
- In 1984, the Waldinger company carried out a renovation under the advice of Gero Kaleschke. New tin front pipes were installed. The Fugara has been removed and a new Kornett has been placed. The pipework was overhauled in 2003 by Matzenbacher Orgelbau. The restoration was completed in 2016 by Vier Orgelbau.
