- There is a small organ in the Sint Willibrorduskerk in Rhoon, which has no signature. It is certain that the organ has been built by the company Maarschalkerweerd & Zn. in 1887 for the chapel of the Roman Catholic Girls' Orphanage on the Schiedamsedijk in Rotterdam. In 1902 it was transferred to the chapel of the Roman Catholic Orphanage on the West-Kruiskade. It was placed in 1928 as a temporary organ in the Roman Catholic Church of Saint Therese of the Child Jesus in Rotterdam-Bloemhof. It was relocated to Rhoon in 1930.
- This church was consecrated in 1894. It is a neo-Gothic church, designed by Bleijs. In 1962 the organ was restored. The Gamba 8' has been replaced by a Quint 2 2/3', while a Sifflet 2' was placed on a new slide. A Subbas 16' is placed in front of the pedal on a pneumatic chest.
- In 1985 Scheuerman restored the organ. The windchest and the wind supply have been restored. On June 14, 1985 the organ could be put back into use.
- It is remarkable that the photos from 2012 show Viola di Gamba 8' and Flageolet 2' on the register knobs. These ranks may have been placed after 2007.
