- In 1861 N.A.G. Lohman installed an organ in the Reformed Church of Eppenhuizen. It was an older instrument - presumably a residence organ - that was converted by Lohman. It was inaugurated on September 15, 1861. In 1882 Jan Doornbos transferred the instrument to a new church building. It was modified by him and a new prospect has been manufactured. In 1943 Klaas Doornbos carried out a restoration. He replaced almost all the pipework with new. Johan van Meurs was advised on this work. The organ then had five stops and an open place on the wind chest. There was no pedal keyboard.
- The church building has been out of use since 1976. It has been renovated, but the pulpit is still present in the church. The organ was disassembled and stored in 1990 by people Ruiter. The two trumpet-blowing angels are placed on the Schnitger organ of Nieuw-Scheemda. There is currently an American harmonium in Eppenhuizen.
