1694: The organ in Deyelsdorf was build as a residence-organ for the pastor of St. Jakobi in Hamburg, Dr. Johann Friedrich Mayer.

1701: Meyer became an appointment as Professor of Theology at the university of Greifswald. The residence-organ was moved to Greifswald. After the death of J.F. Mayer the organ was moved to Deyelsdorf. Statues were added on the organcase.

ca. 1800: The organ was changed by the organbuilder  Friedrich Friese I (1765-1833) from Bassendorf. A Pedal was added and the manual was extended to g3.

1878: Rebuild by Friedrich Albert Mehmel (1827-18888). Two stops of Schnitger (Gedackt 8' and Flöte 4') survived. The organcase also survived.

1998: Restauration by Rainer Wolter from Zörbig (Rügen).
