The organ in the church in Lofta was originally built in 1837 by Pehr Zacharias Strand. Jürgen Marcussen radically rebuilt it in 1856. The number of ranks was reduced by four. In 1937, the Marcussen company carried out a restoration. The specification has been altereed. On the Huvudverk, the Rörflöjt 4' was replaced by a Quint and the Cornett by a Mixtur. The Öververk has been expanded with a Cymbel and on the Pedalverk the Gedackt 8' has been replaced by an Octava 4'. The division of the Fagott 16' was undone. In 1992 the organ was restored by Marcussen. The Cymbel was removed, but the situation of 1937 was maintained.
