1913 Gebroeders Reygaert  new organ
1935 Emile-Henri Kerkhoff  restoration

  • When the church in Goé was restored in 1910, the old organ was removed. This instrument was probably installed in 1842, and bought second hand in Louveigné. In the years 1911-1913 a new organ was built by the brothers Reygaert. This instrument, with pneumatic action and cone chests, is located on a new gallery in two cases on the west side of the church. A electric wind blower was installed in 1921.
  • As a result of lightning striking the tower, the organ was badly damaged in 1931. In the years 1934-1935 the instrument was repaired by Emile Kerkhoff. The organ has a simple case, without prospect, with the pipes standing free behind wooden plates. The console is free-standing, in the middle of the gallery, with the organist facing the church.
  • In 1998 there were plans for a restoration, but it is uncertain whether this has been carried out or not.
