- Organ from 1783, built by Olof Schwan. The organ had one manual and an attached pedal. The front was designed by Jacob Wulff. In the years 1933 and 1934 John Vesterlund expanded the organ with a swell with four stops and an independent pedal with a Subbas 16' on a pneumatich windchest. The manual size was expanded from 49 keys (C-c''') to 54 keys (C-f'''), with the new pipework also on a pneumatic chest. A new freestanding console was placed and the register action was made pneumatic. Consultant for the work was Bertil Wester.
- In the years 1978/1979 Magnusson carried out a reconstruction, in which the original organ was completely restored.
