In 1909 the Klais company built an organ for the chapel of the Marienhospital in Cologne. The instrument was restored by Klais in 1949-1954, adapting it to the taste of the time: the swell box was removed and the stop list was modified. The organ was restored by Klais in 2008 after it had been unplayable for a long time.
