  • The organ in the church of Arriance dates from around 1830. It was bought in 1895 as a temporary organ for the Église Sainte-Ségolène in Metz. It was placed here by Dalstein & Haerpfer, and adapted to the taste of the time. After the new main organ in Metz was completed, the organ was transferred to Arriance by Dalstein & Haerpfer. It could be used for the first time during the Christmas Midnight Mass celebration on December 24, 1898.
  • In 1993 the organ was restored by Léon Krier.
