  • Holstebro Kirke was built in 1906-1907. The firm Andresen & Co. built a pneumatic organ with eighteen registers for this church. The front was designed by Vilhelm Ahlman, who also was the architect of the church building. The instrument was revised around 1930 by A.C. Zachariasen and expanded to twenty registers.
  • In 1957 the organ was demolished and replaced by a completely new mechanical organ by Frobenius.
