In 1973, the Verschueren company installed a new organ in the Thomaskirche in Kempen. However, this was a relatively small instrument. Soon the church asked for a larger organ. Brigitte Kröger, cantor-organist of the church, advised on the construction of this instrument. The company Verschueren was again selected. The organ was inaugurated on September 22, 1991.
