- In 2016, the Vleugels company installed a small organ in the chapel of the Schloss Bürgeln near Obereggenen, municipality of Schliengen. It is placed in a glass organ case. The organ has six stops and there is no pedal keyboard. The instrument is easily movable. It is not newly built for this location. The organ was manufactured in 2000 for the Christ Pavillon at Expo Hannover. It was put into use here on June 1, 2000 with a recital by Peter Bares.
- After the exhibition, the instrument was used by the company Vleugels for various promotional activities. Then it was transferred to the choir of St. Quintinkirche in Mainz. It was put into use here on June 24, 2001 with a concert by Thomas Drescher.
- It also served as a temporary organ during the restoration of the organ in St. Martinskirche in Garmisch. The roof of the organ is fitted with blinds that can be operated by a step. The pitch is fixed at a'= 440 Hz, but can be raised or lowered by a semitone by a transposing device. The instrument was taken into use in Schliengen in October 2016.
