Since the old church of Lingenfeld was too small and dilapidated, a completely new parish church was built in the years 1837-1840. This building was designed by August von Voit. The new church was dedicated on October 25, 1840. The Seuffert organ from 1818 from the old church was sold to the parish in Eschbach. The company Voit from Durlach built a new organ for the new church. The organ case was designed by August von Voit, and it was constructed by Nicolaus Dreher, a cabinetmaker in Speyer. The interior of the organ no longer exists. In 1907 the company Gebr. Link installed a new pneumatic organ with 23 registers. This was replaced in 1962 by the current organ, built by Wolfgang Scherpf. It is a three-manual organ with 30 registers.
