| Year | Builder | Opus | Activity | 1816 | Joseph Bergäntzel | new organ | 1882 | Gebrüder Mayer | modify stoplist | 1903 | Gebrüder Mayer | rebuild | 1984 | Ferdinand Stemmer | reconstruction |
- In 1815-1816 Joseph Bergäntzel built a three-manual organ for the parish church of Tschagguns. The builder came from the Alsace, and the organ has many typical features of Alsatian organs from the end of the eighteenth century. The organ has been modified twice by the company Gebr. Mayer. In 1882 they installed a new bellows and two registers were replaced by a Gamba and a Salicional. More drastic was the renovation from 1903, when the organ was rebuilt with pneumatic action, and the stop list was reduced from 38 to 34 registers.
- The organ was reconstructed by Ferdinand Stemmer in 1983-1984 to the situation in 1816. Missing material was made after examples of comparable instruments. The only deviation from the original is the pedal size of 27 keys (C-d') instead of the original 18 (C-f°).
