- The old organ of the Nicolas Church in Elburg was in poor condition around 1810. Thanks to a gift from Lieutenant Admiral Van Kinsbergen's heirs in 1819, it became possible to have a new instrument built. In 1821, Georg Heinrich Quelhorst signed an agreement for the construction of the organ, which was to be completed by September 1823 at the latest. In the end, the new large organ was not delivered until 1825. It was put into use on May 12, 1825.
- The instrument was maintained regularly, but remained unchanged. In 1925 the company Dekker of Goes worked on the organ, but the stop list did not change until 1948 when De Koff repaired the instrument. He replaced the Viola di Gamba 4' of the Rugwerk with an Octave 4'. New keyboards were also made, and the pitch was lowered by a semitone. In the years 1981-1983 the instrument was restored by Verschueren and Hendriksen & Reitsema. It was put back into use on March 28, 1983.
