1839 Sven Petter Pettersson  new organ
1954 Th. Frobenius & Sønner  restoration

The organ in Bro Kyrka was built in 1839 by Sven Pettersson. It did not originally have a pedalboard. In 1954 the instrument was restored by the company Frobenius. In addition, the Super Octav 1' has been completely renewed, as well as the large octave of the Octava 2'. Frobenius further changed the Offen Fleut 4' into a Rörflöjt 4', and expanded the organ with pulldown pedals.
