In the years 1856-1861 Adolf Reubke built a pipe organ for August Gottfried Ritter, organist of the Domkirche in Magdeburg. The organ has deteriorated over time, but has been preserved. Alexander Schuke carried out a restoration in the years 1999-2003. The Octave 4' had to be made new. Parts of the organ have been further reconstructed using the comparable Reubke organ from Wahlitz. The organ is located in the Schinkel Hall of the Gesellschaftshaus in Magdeburg.
