The single-manual mechanical instrument was built by the Rokytnice organ builder Jiří Španěl in 1783. The instrument is built into an artistically interesting organ case with marbling and richly carved and gilded carvings. The playing table with original keyboard, manubrium and carved bench stands freely in front of the organ prospectus, the air system is placed against the side wall of the choir. The instrument was previously repaired by Jiří Španěl the Younger (1859) and Augustin Španěl (1872).
The instrument was already non-functional and partially stolen in the 1980s. After 1990 it was dismantled in connection with the construction of the church interior. In 2006, the remaining tin pipes, including the prospectus pipes, were vandalised during a break-in at the church, leaving only fragments of the metal pipe collection.
Despite the fact that only a torso of the pipe fund has survived, the instrument can be considered very important. It is probably the oldest surviving opus of the organist Jiří Španěl, the founder of the organ tradition in Rokytnice v Orlických horách.
Therefore, on the initiative of the mayor of Rokytnice, Petr Hudousek, the first stage of the instrument’s commissioning was launched in 2010 and the restored instrument was heard for the first time in 2016. The work was carried out by Jan Karel from Sázava for CZK 531,000.
