The Silbermann-Trampeli organ only found its current destination, the church of St. Kilian in Bad Lausick, more than 200 years after it was built.
The instrument was built in 1721/22 by Gottfried Silbermann for the Johanniskirche Chemnitz, as a single-manual organ with pedal. In 1792, Johann Gottlob Trampeli added a second manual as the upper organ with 8 registers to the instrument, giving it its current name. In 1879, the organ was sold to Auligk near Pegau and installed in the village church there. It was not until 1955 that the St. Kilian's parish in Bad Lausick bought the Silbermann-Trampeli organ, which was installed in 1958 after a restoration by master organ builder Hermann Lahmann from Leipzig. During the installation, the disposition was reconstructed, a pedal coupler (main organ on pedal) was installed, and the pedal was expanded by installing a small pedal chest to include the registers Principal - Bass 8', Octav - Bass 4', and Mixture 4'. In 1990, the last restoration was carried out by the Hermann Eule company from Bautzen, returning the instrument to its original pitch (466 Hz at 15 C°) by re-stretching the entire pipework.
