1831 Louis Voit  new organ
1888 Johann Jelacic  rebuild

  • In 1831 Louis Voit built a new organ for the Protestant Church in Germersheim. It was a two-manual organ with twenty registers. In 1888 it was restored by Johann Jelacic. In 1917 the front pipes were removed. Zinc pipes were then placed. Conversion plans by Kämmerer (1919), Poppe (1927) and Link (1928) were never carried out. The organ was demolished in 1955. Part of the pipework was used in the construction of a new organ by Oberlinger.
  • The specification stated here is dating from 1944.
