  • The organ in the church of Ervy-le-Châtel dates from 1755. It was built by Jean-François Mangin and was enlarged in 1773 by Joseph Rabiny. Over time it has been frequently modified, including by Nicolas-Antoine Lété in 1844, by Paul Chazelle in 1867 and by Charles Rollin in 1877. In 1929 Jules Bossier rebuilt the instrument.
  • In 2022 the organ is in poor condition. Pipes are missing and it is unplayable. There are plans for a restoration in the years 2022-2025.
