- The organ in Festa Kyrka is the oldest organ in the Diocese of Stockholm. Because it was in an unplayable condition, but it was not allowed to remove the instrument, a new organ was built by Bruno Christensen that was setup behind the old instrument. The new organ has 21 stops on three manuals and pedal. It was completed in 1982. The third manual is a coupling manual between the other two. The new organ has no real prospect of its own.
- The old organ was built in 1720 by Eric German for the Barnhuskyrka in Stockholm, but contains much older material. It was placed in Fresta in 1788. YES. Johnsson from Duvbo built a new organ in 1934 with eight stops on two manuals behind the old instrument.
