  • The organ in the parish church of Mesnil-Saint-Loup was built by Jacques Cochu in 1785 with five stops for the church of Dienville in Aube. It was in use as a small choir positive. In 1895 the organ was restored and enlarged with four stops by Charles and Frédéric Rollin. They also restored the main organ of the church in 1894, that also is an instrument of Jacques Cochu, from 1764.
  • In 1910 the organ was transferred to Mesnil-Saint-Loup by Charles Rollin. A restoration was carried out in 1970 by Louis Eugène-Rochesson and the Manufacture Gonzalez-Danion. Laurent Plet overhauled the organ in 2015.
