In 1842, the Basiliens company built a new organ for the church of Saint-Rémy in Amiens. It was a three-manual organ with 34 registers. After the construction of a new church, the organ case was transferred to this building. However, the interior was newly built in 1900 by the Van Bever brothers. Part of the pipework has been reused. In 1960 the organ was restored and expanded by the company Haerpfer-Erman. In addition, the action was electrified and a new free-standing console was installed.
