The organ contains older material: Organ case from 1870 by François-Joseph Herbuté
In 1870 François-Joseph Herbuté built a new organ for the Anglican Church in Geneva. It was placed in a neo-gothic organ case. The instrument has served at various locations. After a number of years it was transferred to the chapel of the Saint-Antoine prison. Later it was relocated to the Institut Florimont. In 1979 it was replaced by a new organ here. The interior of the organ case was stored in the organ museum in Roche, but the organ case was placed by the Kuhn company in the parish church of Lommis and fitted with a new interior with twenty stops. The organ was dedicated on September 28, 1986.
