  • The organ of the Église Saint-Pierre in Les Rousses originally was built by Aristide Cavaillé-Coll in 1870 for a private customer, the Comte de Froissard. It was installed in his Château in the music room. In 1873, the organ was relocated to the church of Les Rousses by Cavaillé-Coll. It was installed on the gallery on the west side of the nave.
  • In 1978, Philippe Hartmann relocated the instrument to the choir of the church, on the floor. It has been restored in 1989 by Michel Jouve.
