The organ contains older material: Organ case from 1868 by Gustav Schlimbach
In 1902 the Link brothers built a new pneumatic organ with 25 stops for the Sankt Jakobuskirche in Germersheim. It replaced an organ by Gustav Schlimbach from 1868. The case and a number of registers of this organ are presumably taken over by Link. In 1966 the interior was replaced by a completely new organ, built by the Gebr. Späth.
