Under the direction of Heinz Göttsche and Gero Kaleschke, the Klais company built a new organ for the protestant church in Leinsweiler in 1982. The organ case is old and dates from 1759. It is probably a work of Johann Carl Baumann. The old interior had already been replaced in 1925 by a new Steinmeyer organ with one manual and pedal. This was a pneumatic organ with membrane chests. This organ was demolished in 1982.
