At this YouTube video, Martin Ott and Horst Buchholz go through the organ with church leadership and discuss the wear, as well as the desire to restore the organ.

Updated through online information from T. Daniel Hancock. -- According to John Speller's website, 2014-09-22, the organ is not currently playable, and was first used for Pfeffer's daughter's wedding in 1874. Also, "the fine Greek Revival case may or may not have been retained from the previous 1855 Pilcher organ" and "the organ retains its original single-rise reservoir with three feeders."
