The organ contains older material: Pipes from 1844 by Bernhard Dreymann
In 1821, Franz Seuffert built a ten-stop organ for the parish church of Edigheim. In 1960 the church was replaced by a larger building. The organ was intended to be demolished, but was bought and stored by Werner Owart. A few years later he placed it in the Sankt Michaelskirche in Hofheim near Worms. Most of the pipe work is taken from the old organ of this church, an instrument by Bernhard Dreymann from 1844, which was placed in the church in 1901 by Förster & Nicolaus. The windchest of the pedal is also by Dreymann. The Mixtur and the Quintade 4' of the pedal are newly made.
