- The organ in the parish church of Berus was installed here around 1800. The instrument had been taken over from the abbey church in Waldgassen. A new organ case was constructed in Berus by the local firm Gebr. Guldner. The old organ had 16 stops on two manuals with pulldown pedals. The original maker is unknown. In 1757 the instrument had been repaired by Franz Adam Huberti.
- In 1890, a new organ was installed in the organ case by Dalstein-Haerpfer. This instrument has been preserved until today. After war damage, the organ was repaired by Stahlhuth in 1942-1944. They expanded the instrument and installed the Oberwerk in a swell box. A new console was installed at this time.
- The situation of 1944 has not been altered. Restorations were carried out in 1983 by Wolfgang Rehn from Orgelbau Kuhn and in 2014 by Günter Hardt.
