Johannes Glis built an organ in 1733 with one manual and a pedal for the St. Markus church in Erlangen. Johannes Strebel carried out renovation works in 1884 and in 1903. The organ was restored and enlarged by Steinmeyer in 1946-1947. They expanded it with an independent pedal on a pneumatic wind chest. Johannes Rohlf restored the organ in 1987. Rohlf made a new mechanical pedal chest, and a Hinterwerk was also installed as a second manual.
