  • The organ in the church of Ambleny was built in the 1920s. The previous organ of the church was severely damaged in the First World War. The builder is unknown.
  • After the organ had been in unplayable condition for many years, it has been restored by volunteers since 2009. It concerned a group of students from a school in Villers-Cotterêt led by Vincent Dupont. The stop list has been modified. At the Récit, the Nazard 2 2/3' and the Trompette 8' have been replaced by a Bourdon 8' and a Flagolet 2'.
