  • The building of the Wallonian (French speaking) church in Haarlem is the old Beguine Church, dating from the 13th century. Since 1562 the church is used by the Wallonian community of Haarlem. In 1807-1808 Johann Caspar Friederichs built a new organ for this church. Advisors during the work were P. van Lee en J. Enschedé, members of the church board. On 27 augustus 1808 the organ was delivered, and the next day examined by P. Hoogstraaten and J.P. Schumann, organists in Haarlem.
  • In 1875 the organ was enlarged by Hermanus Knipscheer (the second). The Bovenwerk got a new Viola di Gamba 8' and a Tremulant. The pedal was pulldown, but Knipscheer placed two independant stops on the pedal, a Fagot 16' and a Schalmey 4'. The Bovenwerk was placed in a swell box.
  • All reed stops were renewed in 1924 by Karel Pieter van Ingen. In the years following there must have been worked on the organ, but it is not known by whom and when. In 1959 it was stated that some stops had been moved inside the organ (Gemshoorn 4', Quint 3' and Gedekte Quint 3'), others were missing (Dulciaan 8', Fagot 8' and the Open Fluit 2').
  • In 1964-1965 the firm D.A. Flentrop restored the instrument. The reconstructed the original disposition, removed the swell box and the tremulant, and they made new reeds following the scales of the other Friederichs organs. The Viola di Gamba from 1875 was kept. The pedal was enlarged with five transmissions from the Hoofdwerk, to make it more useable. The pedal reeds from 1875 were also renewed. On June 25, 1965, the instrument was officially inaugurated.
  • Henk van Eeken restored the organ in the years 2001-2008. This was a technical restoration, including a rebuild of parts of the blowing system and the bellows. Van Eeken exchanged the pedal Schalmey 4' from 1964 by a new Trompet 8'. On July 12, 2008, the organ was reinaugurated.
  • The building was in strong need of a major restoration. When all the funds were there, the works could be carried out in the years 2013-2019. The organ was packed during the works, but it was necessary to clean the entire instrument. The work was carried out by Flentrop in 2019, and this included also a new technical revision. Church and organ were taken in use again on September 21, 2019 (official) and September 22, 2019 (church service).
