N 1722 it was decided in Störmthal to renew and expand the old, dilapidated village church in a contemporary style. The church patron, chamberlain Statz Hilmar von Fullen, was able to employ Zacharias Hildebrandt in the summer of 1722 to build the organ. Hildebrandt completed the Störmthal organ with 14 stops on a manual and pedal within about a year. In autumn 1723, Johann Sebastian Bach, the new Thomaskantor from nearby Leipzig, took off the organ. As a sign of special appreciation of Hildebrandt's work, he did not leave it at a mere organ test, but rather performed his cantata InchMost Wished for JoyInch (BWV 194) on November 2, 1723 Inchat public services and inauguration of said organInch After a restoration in 2008, the organ resumes the state that Johann Sebastian Bach was able to hear in 1723.
