- The organ in Eys is special because the positive organ does not have stop of its own, but can only use four registers of the main work as a transmission. It was built in 1844 by Joseph Müller.
- The instrument was restored by Flentrop in 1961/1962, and is still in its original state. After the restoration, numerous activities were organized to demonstrate the organ to the public. It was officially inaugurated on Ascension Day, May 31, 1962, after which the Krönungsmesse of Mozart was performed. A few festive performances followed, followed by a large party on 3 July.
