  • In 1792 the Stumm brothers built an organ for the newly built Evangelische Kirche in Albisheim. Stumm's interior was replaced in 1900 by a two-manual organ with pneumatic cone chest from the Walcker company, whereby Stumm's front was retained, but was expanded with two side fields. The organ was also moved to the east side of the church. The Walcker organ had two manuals and pedal with 23 stops.
  • This instrument was replaced in 1965 by an organ from Oberlinger. Consultant was Adolf Graf. Not all registers were already installed in 1965. The organ was completed in 1977.
