Municipal: Le Havre
Region:Haute-Normandie
Address: Place Père Arson, 76600, Le Havre
Description nr.: 2000188.
Built by: Jean Baptiste Nicolas Lefebure (1747)
The organ in the Saint-François church was built in 1747 by Lefebure. It was restored and modified in 1823 (Huet), 1847 (Blève & Maillard) and 1912 (Duputel). In 1948 the company Costa-Duval dismantled the organ. Roethinger rebuilt it in 1962. The now no longer original instrument had been given an electro-pneumatic action. The pedal is built with three ranks using unit chests. A second manual has been installed, but the case of the positive organ has remained empty. There are plans to restore the organ to its original state.
