- In 1951, the company E.F. Walcker & Cie. built a new organ with 25 stops for the Martinskirche in Stuttgart-Möhringen. The church had been destoyed during the Second World War, and the new church was inaugurated in 1949. The new organ could be dedicated with Christmas 1951. At this time only the Hauptwerk was completed, and two pedal stops. The rest of the organ was installed in 1955. Consultant was Walther Lutz.
- Because of the lack of good materials in the building years, more and more problems occured. Although a restoration was carried out in 1989-1990 and reparations in 1994, a mayor rebuild seem to be unavoidable. In 2010 the decision was made to build a completely new instrument. The work started in 2019. The old organ was demolished.
