1856 François Bernard Loret  new organ
2005 Bruggeman-Baert  restoration

  • The old church of Onze Lieve Vrouw ten Traan in Kalfort was built in the years 1854-1856 in neo-Romanesque style. The church was a pilgrimage church. An organ was installed by François Bernard Loret. In 1977 the church building was demolished due to dilapidation and replaced by a new church. After the consecration of this new church in 1979, the organ no longer fit in, so it remained in storage. Due to adjustments to the front, it could eventually be placed in the modern church.
  • In the years 2002-2005 the organ was restored by Jean Bruggeman and relocated to the church of Moregem. An attached pedal has been added. Originally the organ had two combination pedals, which were removed when the pedal keyboard was installed.
