After the restoration of the church building, a second-hand organ was bought. This was built in 1972 by André Thomas for Edouard Senny in Filot. After his death in 1980 the organ was bought by Hans-Georg Reinertz from Eupen. When it was transferred to Vivegnis, the organ was rebuilt by André Thomas with a new facade and a modified disposition. The Grand Orgue was expanded with a Flûte à Cheminée and a Principal, and a Nazard and a Tierce were added to the Récit.
