- The Church of Our Lady in Assebroek was built in 1620 and enlarged in the years 1743-1746. The church was an important place of pilgrimage. The organ in the church is unsigned, but is attributed to Jacobus Van Eynde from Ypres. It was built around 1716. Oskar Potvlieghe installed the organ in Assebroek in 1912.
- Around 1925 the organ was converted by Jules Anneessens into a two-manual organ with a swell box and some more romantic registers. In 1993-2000 the instrument was reconstructed to the presumed original condition by the firm Potvlieghe-De Maeyer under consultancy of Jozef Braekmans. The windchest and mechanics were reconstructed using the Van Eynde organ in Stalhille as an example. Original ranks by Van Eynde are present in the Prestant, Doublette, Bourdon, Fluyte and Nasard. The Vox Humana is a copy of the Forcevill Vox Humana from 1729, in the organ of the Pauluskerk in Antwerpen. The Trompet was taken from the previous organ of the Abdij van Male.
