  • Johann Christoph Leibner built an organ for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Dresden-Loschwitz in 1753. According to the contract, it had sixteen stops, thirteen on the manual and three on the pedal. A first change in the disposition was carried out in 1794 by Johann Christian Kayser. He replaced the Sesquialtera with a Cornett 4 fach and expanded the Mixtur with a fourth choir. In 1876 the organ was restored by Carl Eduard Jehmlich. The Quintadena 8', Quinte 1 1/3' and Octave 1' stops were removed, and a Gambe 8' and a Fugara 8' were installed as new stops.
  • The organ was demolished in 1898 and replaced by a completely new organ by the Gebrüder Jehmlich.
