The Organ was constructed by Gebrüder Rieger Orgelbau, Schwarzach (Vorarlberg) in 1978. The organ's predecessor instruments include the first organ in 1230, a new build in 1563 by Jacob Scherer, a swallow's nest organ by Albrecht Lewin in 1619, a creation by F.A. Mehmel, Stralsund in 1881 with three manuals and pedals/41 stops, and in 1902 the organ was updated by Barnim Grüneberg partly using parts of the previous instrument. There was also a remodeling by Kemper & Son in 1954 followed by a new build by Kemper in 1966. The current organ was newly built in 1978.
Additional enhancements were made in 1994 with the addition of a carillon (a musical instrument that is typically housed in the bell tower of a church) in the third manual. In 2013, there was a general revision done by Rieger.
