The Merklin firm built a new organ for the Église Notre-Dame in Mantes-la-Jolie in 1896-1897. The organ was dedicated on November 11, 1897. Over the years, the organ has been modified a few times, and it has also suffered from war violence. In the years 2012-2013 Laurent Plet and Yves Fossaert carried out a reconstruction of the original concept, retaining some later extensions, including a Soubasse 32' by Gutschenritter from 1925.
