However, a completely new organ was built by Mårtenssons Orgelfabrik with 22 registers. It was placed on the south side of the chancel. The front was designed by Jörgen Fåk. The organ was renovated in 2010. The Nasard 1 1/3' of the second manual has moved up to 2 2/3'. Furthermore, a Cymbelstjärna has been placed and a modern setzer installation has been installed.
