List of organs in Mecklenburg

The list of organs in Mecklenburg successively includes the preserved historical organs as well as nationally significant new organs in Mecklenburg . In 2013 Mecklenburg had an organ inventory of 638 instruments. The oldest surviving organ from 1602 is now in the Redefin village church behind a neo-Gothic housing. Three other baroque organs from the 17th century, 20 works from the 18th century and 21 organs from the 1800s to the 1830s have been preserved. 350 instruments date from the Romantic Age (1840–1918). Then 17 organs were built by 1945 and then 160 organs by 1990 and 41 new and 25 used organs were purchased from 1991.

The main builders are given in the fourth column; Cooperation between several organ builders is indicated by a slash, later modifications by commas. Italic letters indicate that only the historic case has been preserved. In the sixth column, the Roman number indicates the number of manuals , a capital "P" indicates an independent pedal , and a lower-case "p" indicates a pedal that is only attached. The Arabic number indicates the number of sounding registers in today's organs (as of 2015). The last column provides information on the state of preservation and links with further information.
