- In 1865, the Ibach company built a two-manual organ for the large Alte Synagoge in Aachen. This synagogue was built in the years 1860-1862 to a design by Wilhelm Wickop.
- It is not clear whether this instrument existed until 1938, but in that year the synagogue was destroyed during the Kristallnacht. The synagogue was enlarged in 1903 and 1929, the organ may have been replaced or rebuilt.
