The organ contains older material: Organ case from 1882 by E.F. Walcker & Cie.
In 1882 Walcker built a new organ for the parish church in Merazhofen. This church had been consecrated on July 27, 1848. The instrument was placed in two organ cases on either side of the window. It had twelve registers, mechanical action and cone chests. The front pipes were requisitioned in 1917. Julius Schwarzbauer installed new zinc front pipes in 1921. The instrument was demolished in 1973. Johannes Karl built a completely new organ with slider chests and nineteen stops. It was placed in the organ cases of Walcker, and expanded with a Rückpositiv in a historic case, which was probably made by Franz Anton Haser.
