An organ was built for the Basilique Saint-Michael in Menton in 1666 by an unknown organ builder from Genova, Italy. It seems to have been a pupil of Guglielmo Hermans or a son of Giovanni Oltacchino. The instrument is located behind the altar. The organ was rebuilt in 1754, also this organ builder is not known.
In 1930 the Manufacture Michel Merklin & Kuhn rebuilt the organ. It was overhauled and electrified in 1972 by the company Ruche-Meslé. Maintenance works were carried out in 1998 by Tamburini.
