1876 Louis Benoît Hooghuys  new organ
1928 Jules Anneessens  rebuild

  • The Sint Martinus church in Loppem is an old church, which was converted into neo-gothic style in the seventies of the nineteenth century. Louis Benoit Hooghuys delivered a new organ in 1876. The old one was demolished in 1868. This organ was built in 1743 by Andries Jacob Berger, and was sold to the Sint Godelieve parish in Heule-Watermolen.
  • In 1928 the organ was restored and modified by Jules Anneessens. He replaced the Fourniture 3 rangs (1') with a Voix Céleste and the Dolce 8' with a Salicional.
