The organ contains older material: Organ case from 1774 by Andreas Malmlöf
The organ in Sankta Maria Kyrka in Åhus was built by Mårtenssons Orgelfabrik in 1970 and rebuilt and extended by the same company in 1998. The organ case is much older. It dates from 1774 and was made by Andres Malmlöf. In 1909 Eskil Lundén built a new organ in this case, which was replaced in 1936 by an organ by Bo Wedrup with twenty stops. The 1970 organ had 22 registers. This was expanded to 42 stops in 1998. The swell is located in a separate case behind the organ, and it sounds to the transept of the church.
