  • In 1759 the Stumm brothers installed a new organ with two manuals and pedal in the old Evangelische Kirche in Wörrstadt. It was revised by Bernhard Dreymann in 1841, but without changing the disposition. In 1934-1935 the organ was restored by the Walcker firm under the advice of Johannes Mehl. Although the organ has been modified, all the Stumm pipework has been preserved. The Oberlinger company restored the disposition to its original state in 1963.
  • In 1979-1981 the organ was again restored by Oberlinger, under the advice of Stumm expert Jürgen Eppelsheim. The reeds have been made new on the basis of examples by Stumm. In 1998 the organ was expanded by Oberlinger with a Glockenspiel. Rainer Müller carried out major maintenance in 2011.
