- In 1739, Johann Michael Stumm built an organ for the former Wallfahrtskirche in Armsheim with Hauptwerk and Rückpositiv. He used a lot of material from the previous organ, which was built around 1580. Stumm's organ has largely been preserved in its original condition. In 1840, Jakob Köhler replaced the keyboards with new ones, adding the key for C sharp in the lowest octave. However, it is paired with C-sharp minor, as the tone on the windchests was not added. Köhler also installed a new manual coupler with a drawknob.
- In 1911 the organ has been overhauled by Förster & Nicolaus. In 1953 Förster & Nicolaus installed an electric wind motor. The Oberlinger company overhauled the organ in 1959. The original disposition was reconstructed by them. In 1990 Oberlinger restored the organ again. Now the mechanics were also restored to their original state. The old sliding coupler has been installed again.
