Bâti par: Gebroeders Vermeulen (1952)
Replaced (1977)


  • In 1877-1878 a new parish church was built in Posterholt, designed in the Gothic Revival style by Johannes Kayser. The church was enlarged in 1926 after a design by his son, Jules Kayser. In 1885 the Gebroeders Franssen built a two-manual organ for the church. It had no visible prospect pipes. The pedal was attached. It is possible that the organ was converted and expanded in 1926.
  • The church building was blown up in 1945 during the war. The ruins have since been cleared away, and a new church has been built elsewhere in the village. This church was built according to a design by Frits Peutz. The building was consecrated on December 16, 1951, and the tower was built around 1960. At the end of 1952 a small organ was consecrated in the new church, built by the company Gebr. Vermeulen from Weert. It had eight registers on the manual and an independent pedal with a Subbass. This organ was replaced in 1977 by a larger one. It is not known what happened to the Vermeulen organ.
