In August 2010, an organ was installed in the north transept of Saint Gummarus Church in Emblem. It is a historic organ case. This instrument is no longer available. The church has been renovated and preserved in recent years. The organ was placed in the church around 1980. The original location was a monastery or a church in Leuven. It has been stored for a long time in the attic of the Dungelhoef barracks in Leer. It was brought to Emblem by the pastor.It was originally built by Loret, but was extensively renovated in later times. The organ was in very bad condition, and a restoration was not considered useful. It was removed from the church in 2017.
