- In 1843 H.W. Breidenfeld a new two-manual organ with 29 stops for the Liebfrauenkirche in Trier. The old organ of the church was transferred to the church in Üxheim. The Breidenfeld organ was modified by the builder's son in 1892-1894 and expanded to 34 stops. The old windchests were reused, but the action has been replaced by pneumatics. It was given a new front in neo-Gothic style, designed by the Frankfurt am Main architect Lünemann. On August 10, 1894, the organ was put back into use.
- In 1910, the Weigle firm rebuilt the instrument with new cone chests and a modified disposition. It now had 32 stops. In 1945 the organ was very badly damaged, so it was demolished soon afterwards. The stated specification is from after the conversion in 1910.
