- The organ in the Protestant Church in Wolvega was built by Michaël Schwartzberg in 1733. It has been modified over time. The organ case was also altered, by removing the consoles and making the shape of the lower case a rectangle. Originally the organ had no pedal board. Significant changes to the disposition were made in the nineteenth century, possibly in 1863 by the Van Dam firm. The Gemshorn 2', Tertiaan, Mixtuur and Trumpet 8' disappeared in favor of a Flute 4', Flute 2', Bourdon 16' and Viola 8'. In 1934 Mense Ruiter increased the keyboard compass to 54 keys and the pedal compass from 20 to 27 keys. He also made a pneumatic transmission of the Bourdon 16' on the Pedal. In 1939 Mense Ruiter moved the organ.
- A restoration by Flentrop was completed in 1970. The organ case has been restored to its original state, and the disposition has been reconstructed. Consultant during the restoration was Maarten Vente.
