- In 1957 the company Schuster & Sohn built a new organ for the restored church hall of the Evangelische Brüdergemeine in Herrnhut. The old organ was destroyed in 1945. The new organ has 23 stops on two manuals and pedal, with mechanical action and slider chests. The register action was pneumatic.
- The organ was renovated by the Eule company in 2021-2022 and expanded with a Schwellwerk. Two side fields are placed on either side of the organ facade. The new disposition has 34 stops. In the weekend of 13 to 15 May 2022, the instrument was festively put into use. The inaugural concert was given by Johannes Krahl, Christiane Rönsch and Martin Stephan.
