The organ of the Église Saint-Pierre in Marennes is a small instrument with six registers. It was built around 1845, but the maker is unknown. Louis Callinet is thought to be the builder. The organ was renovated by the Debièrre firm in 1892 and 1948. In 1963 André Deliancourt and Claude Patissou carried out some repairs. This was followed by an overhaul by the Beuchet-Debièrre company in 1968. Until 1987, the organ stood on the gallery on the west side of the church. After a restoration by Dominique Oberthur, it was placed on the church floor in the north transept.
