The organ in the church of Westkerke was built in 1957 by the Loncke company. The organ case and part of the pipework were taken from the church's previous organ. This instrument was built around 1820 by the Van Peteghem company for an earlier church building. The Anneessens company transferred the organ to the current church in 1913. A new interior was built here by Loncke in 1957.
