  • In Sankt Lars Kyrka in Eckerö there is a rare organ, built in 1861 by Adam Emanuel Ravander. It was placed on a gallery on the south side of the nave. In 1927 the organ was dismantled and put in storage. In the church, Kangasala installed a new seven-stop pneumatic organ on a gallery on the west side. This was replaced in 1974 by a new mechanical organ, built by Hans Heinrich, also with seven stops. The front of Kangasala remained in front of this organ.
  • The Ravander organ was restored by Hans Heinrich in 1983 and relocated to its original location. Heinrich's organ from 1974 was sold in 1990. A digital organ was placed behind the front of Kangasala. In 2004 there were plans for a renovation of the Ravander organ by Helmuth Gripentrog. The mechanics would also be improved.
