In January 2007, the non-profit association “Katholischer Orgelbauverein St. Peter Bous e. V. ”, which has set itself the goal“ to advertise the restoration of the organ in St. Peter Bous and to procure the necessary funds ”.

From October 2011 to October 2012 the instrument was completely renovated by the organ builder Thomas Gaida ( Wemmetsweiler ) . Numerous extracts give a total of 46 from the actual 29 registers. In addition, an old English celesta is built in. The manual works Hauptwerk , Schwellwerk  I and II are not subject to any fixed assignment and can be freely linked to the two manuals.
