1963 Fonteijn & Gaal  new organ
1983 Kaat & Tijhuis  restoration

  • In 1963 Fonteijn & Gaal delivered an organ for the Gereformeerde Kerk (Reformed Church )in Den Burg on Texel. The instrument was completely overhauled by Kaat & Tijhuis in 1983. All pipework has been re-voiced. The Salicionaal 8' was replaced by a Roerfluit 8', and a Dulcian 8' has been added to the stop list. On December 16, 1983 the organ was put back into use.
  • Since the formation of the PKN in Den Burg, the building has been given the name "De Poort". After a couple of years, the church has been closed in 2019. The building was sold after a last service on September 6, 2020. The organ has been removed from the church in January 2021.
