Built by: V. Van de Loo & Zn. (1951)


  • In 1950-1951, the Van de Loo firm built a new organ for the Sint Michielskerk, Naamsestraat 59 in Leuven. It was dedicated on Easter Sunday, March 25, 1951. Staf Nees played the organ on this occasion. The inauguration concert was provided by Staf Nees, with R. Van Steenwegen, organist of the church, also performing a piece.
  • The organ was dismantled in 2017, because a completely new organ was being built. The Van Loo organ was sold to the parish of in Wyszków, Poland, where it was installed in the Kościół św. Wojciecha. The electric action of the organ was renewed, and a modern setzer combination action was added to the instrument. The first manual was expanded with six new stops, installed in a new case between the two main cases. It could be dedicated here on December 6, 2017. Sebastian Adamczyk played the inaugurational concert.
