- The Stift Sankt Irminen in Trier is a former Benedictine monastery, dating back to the seventh century. In 1768-1771 a new monastery church was built, designed by Jean Antoine in Baroque style. After the dissolution of the monastery in 1802, the buildings remained in use as a hospital. The church was destroyed in 1944.
- An unknown organ builder delivered an organ with a Baroque case in 1785. The organ from the old church, built in 1748 by Roman Benedikt Nollet, was sold in 1792. In 1802, the monastery was dissolved. Two years later, the church was taken into use as a parish church. In 1875 a new organ was built in the old case by Wilhelm Breidenfeld. In 1917 the front pipes were requisitioned, after which they were replaced by zinc ones in 1923.
