1950 Maurice Delmotte  new organ
2007 firma Jos Stevens  restoration

  • The tower of the Church of Our Lady in Nieuwmoer was blown up in 1944, as a result of which the previous organ of the church from 1933 was lost. After rebuilding the tower, the Delmotte company supplied a new church organ. It is a two-manual instrument with seventeen stops. It was dedicated on August 13, 1950. The organ was played by Edgard De Laet. The Stevens company carried out a restoration in 2007.
  • From 1861 to 1929 there was an organ in the church of Nieuwmoer, that came from the Sint Gommarus church in Lier. This organ, which dates from 1628, was subsequently removed. The organ case was relocated to Lier. In 1933 the Stevens company built a new organ for the church, which was lost in 1944.
