- In 1958/1959 the Steinmeyer company built a large organ in the concert hall of the Hochschule für Musik. The organ has opus number 1965. The Schwellwerk was placed in the side wall of the stage.
- During a restoration by Georg Jann in the years 1981-1982, a new console was installed, that was mobile and is equipped with 16 Setzer combinations. But in 1998, the organ was replaced by a new instrument.
- The Steinmeyer organ was dismantled and completely overhauled by the Klais company. After that it was placed in the Mariä-Himmelfahrtkirche in Weißenhorn. Klais built a new organ case to match the interior of the church building. The specification has been restored to its original state. For this, pipe work by Sandtner was used, from the previous organ of the church in Weißenhorn. The Taschenladen have also been restored. On October 17, 2004 the organ was dedicated on the new location.
