  • Until 1954, Brämhult's Kyrka housed a harmonium. This was replaced that year by a pipe organ, installed by Tostareds Orgelfabrik. It was an older organ, with some material from the eighteenth century, from an organ that had originally been built for Vrå Kyrka in Småland. A new organ was installed in this church in 1855. The old instrument was sold to Nöttja Kyrka. In 1932 John Grönvall built a new organ behind the old facade in this church. The interior was purchased by the pastor in Söndrum, who built it in the parsonage behind a newly designed front. In 1954 this was transferred to Brämhult. It was dismantled here around 1980. In 1983 a new organ was put into use.
  • Parts of the old organ are still present in the organ attic in Brämhult. The preserved historical material is stored in Nöttja. There are plans to reconstruct the instrument here.
