  • The brothers Franz Heinrich and Carl Stumm built an organ for the parish church in Pünderich in 1813-1815. It was converted and extended by Heinrich Voltmann in 1879-1880. The organ was moved backwards, the windchest of the Hauptwerk was renewed and the specification of the Positiv was changed.
  • Hubert Elsen made several changes in 1959. Much of the original instrument had now been lost. The organ was restored by Oberlinger in 1976-1977. The situation of 1880 has been reconstructed. The original windchest of the Hauptwerk has been used again. Mechanics and windchest of the Positiv were reconstructed. On Deceember 18, 1977, the organ was inaugurated with a concert by Wolfgang Oehms.
