1953 Salomon Eyckmans  restoration and enlargement

In 1907-1908, the Van Bever brothers built a new organ in the Église Saint-Frédégand in Moustier-sur-Sambre. The organ was played on May 31, 1908 by Émile Siroux and Arthur Decoeur. In 1953 the organ was overhauled by Salomon Eyckmans, and the Grand Orgue was expanded with a few stops. The Bombarde 16' has never been installed, only the drawer is present.
