E6 The church had its first choir organ built by Merklin in 1869, shortly after this builder rebuilt the great tribune organ. However, this small instrument did not give satisfaction and in 1892 a contract for a new choir organ was made with the brothers Eugene and John Abbey of Versailles. The new organ was inaugurated in January 1893. In 1911, Abbey House performed an overhaul. In 1974, the organ was restored and modified in a more classical style by the builder Erwin Müller of Croissy-sur- Seine (Yvelines). The expressive box of the Swell was removed as well as the woodwork of the buffet. In 1986, Bernard Cogez of Tourcoing (Nord) carried out an overhaul. Source
