- In 2018 a choir organ was dedicated in Sakskøbing Kirke. It was played by Flemming Chr. Hansen by this occasion. The organ is an old instrument, originally built around 1850 by Frederik Hoffmann Ramus. The original location is unknown.
- The organ was installed in Engestofte Kirke in 1940 by the company Starup & Søn. They modified the instrument, with the creation of a new prospect of free-standing pipes, that were added on a pneumatic chest as a new Principal 8'. Many original parts were re-used, but the original prospect was lost.
- When a new organ was installed in Engestofte in 1981 by Poul-Gerhard Andersen, the organ was taken over by the family Halfdan Breck, but it was put into storage by him. It remained there until 2013. In that year the organ was acquired by André Palsgård, who searched for ways to reconstruct and save the instrument.
- Kenneth Gustavsson carried out the reconstruction work in the year 2016-2018. Some other instrument by Ramus could be used as examples.
