- Jean-Baptiste Forceville built a new organ for the Abdijkerk Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-Hemelvaart in Ninove, that was completed in 1728. In 1852 Egidius Le Blas enlarged the instrument. It was modified slightly during time, but in 1932 the organ was entirely rebuilt by Jules Anneessens. He created a new pneumatic instrument in the old cases, with new pipework. This organ was dedicated on October 16, 1932, with concert by Firmin De Geeter, organist of the church, Emiel De Groote, organist of the cathedral in Gent, and Alfons Desmet, teacher at the Royal Conservatory in Brussels.
- Joseph Loncke built a new mechanical organ in the cases in the years 1978-1990, that was completed in several phases. Consultant was Gabriël Loncke. In 2014 Jos Moors started a reconstruction of the original instrument. The positive was completed in 2014.
