The Rühlmann organ with its richly decorated neo-Gothic case found its place in St. Peter and Paul's Church in 1890.
A longer phase of neglect followed in the 1950s, and the organ was played for the last time in 1959. Due to the poor structural condition, the end of the town church is threatened. Consideration was given to renting the church out as a large garage. In 1963, the first restorations began. In 1982, the organ was still described by experts as "not worth repairing". Thanks to the then cantor and the organ builder Bernd Barthels, the organ was repaired in April 1989. In 1999 it was cleaned and since 2002 the gradual reconstruction has been taking place.
