Blasius Schaxel built a new organ in 1804 for the Evangelische Kirche in Allmannsweier in Baden. Josef Schaxel altered the stoplist in 1855. He replaced the Hauptwerk Cymbal with a Gamba 8', and the Terz with a Fugara 4'. Adolf Eckart removed the Gamba and the Vox Humana in 1872 during an overhaul. Three years later, the Beck & Weiser company worked on the organ. They shifted the Salicional 4' of the Positiv to a Salicional 8' and expanded the organ with a Flöte 8', a Principal 8' on the Positiv and a Violonbaß 16'. In 1964 the organ was restored by Ernest Muhleisen. During this restoration the original specification has been reconstructed.
