- Johan Niklas Söderling built a two-manual organ for Fotskäls Kyrka in 1874. During a restoration by Halmar Lindegren in 1930 the disposition was modified. He removed the Cornetto from the Huvudverk and renewed the Trumpet. An Octava 2' was made from the pipework of the Cornetto, and the lowest octave of the Rörfleut 4' of the second manual was used for a new Rörfleut 4' on the Huvudverk. At the Svällverk he replaced Rörfleut 4' and Dolcian 8' with two new stops, Voix Céleste 8' and Gemshorn 4'. The pipes of the Borduna 16' (c''-f''') and Gedackt 8' (c'-f''') are newer. Probably these were also renewed in 1930. Finally, the original operation of the swell box, with a hook in several positions, has been replaced by a balanced swell pedal.
- In 1990 the organ was restored by the firm Tostareds Kyrkorgelfabrik. The original disposition has been reconstructed.
