- The organ in the Sint Bavokerk in Gontrode was built in 1834 by Leonard Lovaert. After the construction of the current church in 1854-1855, the organ was transferred. It was set up in the organ gallery. In 2010 the organ was restored by Joris Potvlieghe and placed on the floor of the choir. On October 2, 2010, the organ was put back into use. The official dedication was followed by a concert by Sandra Van der Gucht, in collaboration with Jan Devlieger on recorder.
- The church building is no longer in use as a parish church. It was converted into a meeting place, under the name Welcome House Het Anker. The organ is still in the church. The name of the church was later changed to Roo-Kerk.
