In 1951 the Sauer company built a two-manual organ with thirty stops for the large chapel of the crematorium on Baumschulenweg in Berlin. The building dated from 1913. It was damaged in World War II and was rebuilt in a simpler style in the years 1950-1952. In 1995 the crematorium was demolished and replaced by a new building. The organ was too big for the new space, and has been demolished. Ten stops have been used in the construction of a new organ for the Hoffnungskirche in Berlin-Pankow.
