  • In 1775 Lars Wahlberg built an organ for Bringetofta Kyrka in collaboration with Anders Wollander. It was an organ with ten registers. In 1886 Erik Nordström converted the instrument. More drastic was the 1937-1939 renovation by Olof Hammarberg, who in fact built a new organ with pneumatic cone chests behind the front from 1775. Part of the old pipework was also reused during the construction.
  • The original work was reconstructed in 2004 by the firm of Bergenblad & Jonsson. There are still four complete stops from 1775, and four are partly from 1775. The original work has been extended with an independent pedal, set up in a separate case behind the organ.
