The organ of the Stiftskirche in Neuenheerse was built in old cases, supplemented with a new Rückpositiv in the old style. These cases date from 1713 and were made by Andreas Reinecke, possibly in collaboration with his brother Bernhard Reinecke. The old organ was completely rebuilt in 1882-1883. Only the cases of the main work and pedal and the prospect pipes were preserved. Franz Eggert built a new organ in these cases and removed the Rückpositiv. In 1921 this organ was made electro-pneumatic. It remained in this condition until 1964. In that year a reconstruction by Paul Ott started, which was completed in 1966. Ott also designed a new back positive in matching style. No images of the original positive were found. In the years 1991 to 1994 the organ was restored by the Kreienbrink company.
