Brahe Church on the island of Visingsö in the Vättern was built in 1636 and belonged to the Visingsborg castle, the ruins of which can still be seen. In 1637 the church received its first organ, eight speaking stops built by Per Jönsson, expanded in 1688 with a positive of five stops by Nicolaus Manderscheidt. In 1797 Lars Strömblad delivered a new instrument, with fifteen speaking stops. The organ case of this organ has been preserved. In 1931 the company Åkerman & Lund built a new organ with electro-pneumatic action, fourteen stops plus one transmission in the historic organ case. The console was placed on the church floor under the organ.
