In the Evangelische Kirche in Dierbach there is an organ by Oberlinger from 1955. The organ case is much older. This dates from the end of the eighteenth century. The maker is unknown, but it is thought to be Stiehr or Seuffert. Before the Oberlinger organ was built in the old case, the organ had ten registers on one manual and pedal. Adolf Graf was a consultant in the construction of the new instrument. It was repaired in 1988 by Gerhard Kuhn and in 2007 by Oberlinger.
