In the years 1780-1789 Martin Bergäntzel built an organ for the Protestant church of Andolsheim. For a long time it remained virtually in its original state. In 1917 the front pipes were requisitioned. In 1926, Georges Schwenkedel built a completely new organ behind the Bergäntzel front, where he also placed new front pipes. In 1980 this organ was replaced by a new mechanical instrument from Christian Guerrier. Much of Schwenkedel's pipework has been reused. Guerrier installed new tin prospect pipes.
