  • A new organ was built in the Evangelische Johanneskirche in Stammheim in 1831. It is almost certain that Eberhard Friedrich Walcker was the builder of this instrument. The front shows great similarities with other Walcker facades from this period. In 1928-1929 the Walcker company replaced the old interior with a new pneumatic organ. Some registers from the old organ were reused. In 1954, Walcker moved the instrument to the church choir and expanded it with eight stops. Walcker's opus list mentions that a new organ was built for Stammheim in 1964 as opus 4526.
  • Under the advice of Reimund Böhmig, Peter Plum built a new organ in 1984. The Hauptwerk was placed in the old case. This organ still contains some ranks from its predecessors. The organ was dedicated on May 13, 1984. It was played on this occasion by Reimund Böhmig.
