- The Anneessens organ of the parish church in Spa was donated by the Queen of Belgium in 1891. It was built by Charles Anneessens in the years 1886-1891, and dedicated on April 27, 1891, with a concert by Léandre Vilain.
- The company Joris & Fils cleaned the organ in 1931. In 1939 the instrument was restored by François Joris & fils. They also installed an electric windblower at this occasion.
- It is in a very poor condition and is no longer usable. In 1992, a new organ has been built for the church, but this is located in the transept.
