  • The Katholische Pfarrkirche Sankt Helena in Bonn-West was dedicated on December 18, 1960 at Bornheimer Straße 130. The church building was designed by Emil Steffann. The Klais Orgelbau company built an organ for this church in 1965 with twelve stops on two manuals and pedal. The organ was dedicated in the spring of 1966.
  • The church building was closed for worship in 2007. The building was then vacated, and the organ was sold to the Evangelische Gemeinde in Konz-Karthaus. It was transferred by the Klais company. The organ was dedicated on December 9, 2007. Martin Bambauer played the inaugural concert.
