- In 1968 the company Mönch & Pfaff built a three manual organ for the Münsterkerk in Überlingen. It was placed on the west side of the church and was named Nikolaus-Orgel. Construction consultants were Gerd Augst, Siegfried Hildenbrand and Konrad Philipp Schuba.
- In 1996 the instrument was overhauled by Mönch Orgelbau. An electronic Setzer was built in and the pedal got an Untersatz 32'. On the Schwellwerk, the Septim 1 1/7' was replaced by a Hautbois 8'.
