  • In 1873 Johann Schlader built a new organ for the parish church of Sankt-Petrus-in-Ketten in Drais. The prospect pipes were removed in 1917. New pipes were placed in 1922. The organ was originally located in the center of the organ gallery. In 1934 it was moved to a place against the church wall on the south side of the gallery. In 1955 the organ returned back to the original locaiton.
  • Erich Breitmann carried out a restoration in 1965. He altered the stop list by cutting the Salicional 8' to a Quinte 2 2/3'. The church was dedicated to Maria Königin in 1974. A last restoration of the organ was carried out in 1987 by the company Vleugels. During this work the Salicional has been restored.
