Description nr.: 2006896.

Built by: André Thomas (1974)


The Église Saint-André in Lierneux was built in the years 1959-1961. There were plans to transfer the organ of the previous church building to the new one, after a thorough restoration and rebuilt. There is not much information about this instrument, that probably dated from the 19th century. But it never came to a transfer. Eventually in 1974 a new organ was installed by André Thomas with ten stops on two manuals and pedal. It is located on the church floor, to the southern wall of the nave, close to the choir of the church.
