In 1969-1970 the Kangasalan Urkurakentamo firm built a new organ for Eurajoen Kirkko in Eurajoki. Called Gustaf Adolfs Kyrka in Swedish, the church featured an organ built in 1892 by A.C. Zachariasen. The organ case of this instrument has been reused. The new organ had three manuals and pedal and 32 stops. In 2020 it was replaced by a new organ, built by Martti Porthan. This organ was designed in a style inspired by both the work of Gottfried Silbermann and the work of Friedrich Ladegast. It has two manuals and pedal. Zachariasen's case has been reused for this instrument. It was restored to its original color scheme, but has been expanded with two side fields.
