| Year | Builder | Opus | Activity | 1914 | Félix Van den Brande | new organ | 1954 | Etablissements E.-A. Roethinger | enlargement | 1983 | Jean-Marc Cicchero | restoration |
- In 1914, Félix Van den Brande built a two-manual organ with romantic stop list for the Église Notre-Dame in Boves. It was renovated and expanded in 1953-1954 by the Roethinger company. They placed a Doublette 2' on Grand Orgue and a Cor de Nuit 8' on the Récit on a pneumatic chest.
- In 1983 the organ was modified by Jean-Marc Cicchero. The disposition has been adjusted. He sawed the Salicional 8' shorter to a Grosse Tierce, replaced the Bourdon 16' with a Plein-Jeu and removed the Doublette from the Grand Orgue. A Flûte Conique, made from the Octavin 2', and a new Cymbale were placed on the Récit. Finally, the pedal was expanded with a large number of extensions from the Bourdon 16'.
