- The organ in the Église Saint-Jean in Joigny was built around 1680 for the chapel of the Château des Gondi in the same town. It was enlarged in 1864-1865 by Paul Chazelle and transferred to the church of Saint-Jean. The old front served as the basis for a new organ case.
- In 1884 a Barker lever was installed by Joseph Merklin. The organ was restored in two phases in 2011 and 2017 by Jean-Pascal Villard.
