1796-1798: Georg Wilhelm Wilhelmy adds Dis to the Pedal and replaces the Cimbelstern by "Harmonischen Glocken".
1930-1931: Repairs by Furtwängler & Hammer.
1960-1961: Restoration according to the principles of the "Orgelbewegung". Intonation on a low wind-pressure and new tracker action mechanism.
1981-1982: Restoration by Jürgen Ahrend.
1999: With an "Orgelwoche" from 27.6.1999 - 8.7.1999 the 400th birthday of the organ was celebrated. The restoration of the organ (1981-1982) was finished by tuning the organ in quarter-comma meantone temperament. (01)
