  • In 1970 the Klais company installed a new organ in the Herz-Jesukirche in Essen-Frintrop. Consultant was Bernhard Ader. The organ was inaugurated on September 27, 1970.
  • Due to the closure of the church building, the organ was sold in 2008 to the Sankt Michaelgemeinde in Trier-Mariahof. Hubert Fasen restored the organ and transferred it to the new location. A new organ case has been made. Furthermore, the Terzian and the Septnon of the Schwellwerk were replaced by a Nasard and a Terz. On 7 June 2009 the organ has been dedicated in Trier.
