  • In 1820 Jürgen Marcussen built an organ for the church in Sieseby in northern Germany. The instrument is the oldest organ that Marcussen has build that still exists. It was placed above the altar, with the case shaped around a painting. In 1876 the Mixtur III ranks was replaced at the Hovedvaerk by a Fugara 8'.
  • In 1969 the organ was disassembled and rebuilt in Marcussen's workshop. A new organ was built in Sieseby, with a case similar to the old one. At the initiative of Svend Prip, organist of the Domkirke in Haderslev, the historical instrument was relocated to the cathedral of Haderslev in 1986 by Marcussen. The organ is a special instrument: it has several combined registers, in which mechanical units are made.
