- In 1957 werd het orgel ingrijpend omgebouwd door de firma Hill, Norman & Beard. Het pijpwerk voor het Positiv Organ werd geleverd door de firma D.A. Flentrop uit Zaandam. De firma Orgues Baumgarten restaureerde het orgel in 2003 en breidde het uit met twaalf nieuwe registers en twee digitale stemmen.
