The St. Nicolai Church in Krummendeich originally housed an organ built by Furtwängler & Hammer in 1918, which featured 17 registers on two manuals and a pedal. In 1973, a new organ with ten registers was constructed by the Hillebrand company, using the case of the previous organ. However, during a church restoration, significant damage to the organ pipes was discovered, making a renovation costly and unlikely to improve the instrument's quality significantly.
As a result, the church council decided to commission a new organ from Jens Steinhoff. Completed in 2009, this organ features a unique design with a large keyboard and slider divisions, allowing for a wide range of sounds despite its limited number of registers. The organ incorporates a baroque tuning system and uses historical elements to enhance its tonal richness.
