  • In 1903 Johan Frederik Kruse built an organ for the Reformed Church in Groede. The organ was inaugurated on August 1st, 1903. The builder of the organ, himself an accomplished organist, played the instrument on this occasion. The organ was preserved without major changes. In 1951 a wind engine was installed by Sanders.
  • Because a restoration of the church started, the organ was dismantled and stored by the Reil company in 2009. After a complete restoration, it was re-installed in the church in 2016. It was ready for use again in September.
