Under the advice of Walther Lutz, the Weigle company built a new large organ for the Johanneskirche in Stuttgart in the years 1948-1958. The front was designed by Walter Supper. In 1948 the organ was completed with 33 stops. In 1951 Weigle expanded it to 38 stops and in 1955 to 47 stops, completing it in 1958. It has since 57 registers. The organ was restored in 2005 by Mühleisen Orgelbau.
