Richard Kreutzbach (1839 - 1903), son and employee of company founder Urban Kreutzbach (1796 - 1868), built the organ in 1886 with pneumatic action. With two manuals and pedal, the organ originally had 23 stops.
Playing aids: Pedal coupler from the 1st manual, manual coupler II - I, swell, collective stops: Piano, Mezzoforte and Fortissimo stops.
The modifications and specification changes made in 1925 and 1958 - 1963 were returned in 2006 by the company Mitteldeutscher Orgelbau A. Voigt GmbH Bad Liebenwerda. In this context, a Trompete 8' was added to the specification of the Hauptwerk. II/24.
