  • In 1964, G.F. Steinmeyer & Co. as opus 2084 an organ for the then new Evangelisch-Lutherische Kreuzkirche, Lochnerstraße 17 in Nürnberg-Schweinau. Consultant during the construction was Otto Meyer. The front was designed by Karl Schwabenbauer.
  • In 2004, the Kreuzkirche was closed due to risky structural defects. The organ was then donated to the Evangelical-Lutheran Sankt Pauluskirche in Odessa. This church building was built in 1896/1897 after a design by Hermann K. Scheurembrandt in neo-Romanesque style. Originally there was an organ of the company Walcker in the church. As a church, however, the building was already decommissioned in the run-up to the Second World War. Later it housed a television studio and a gymnasium, among other things. After a major fire in 1976, the church remained in ruins, but was not demolished. After 1990 the church came back into the hands of the German congregation in Odessa. The building was restored between 2005 and 2010 with the support of the Lutheran Diocese of Regensburg. The Steinmeyer organ was overhauled and transferred by Jürgen Lutz in 2009/2010 and was inaugurated on April 17, 2010.
