  • In Lambersart-Canteleu a new church was built in the years 1865-1874, dedicated to Saint-Sepulcre. The church was designed in newgothic style by Charles Maillard. The church building was demolished in the years 1990-1992, except for the tower. Behind the old tower a new church was built in 1993-1994, designed by François Penet. In the new church is no pipe organ.
  • Édouard and Théophile Delmotte built a pipe organ for the church, that was dedicated on October 25, 1879. The organ had ten stops, but two ranks of the Récit were not installed. The pedal organ had no stops of its own. In 1912 the last two stops were installed by Delmotte, but in stead of the planned Octavin Harmonique 2', a Voix Céleste was placed.
  • The organ was renewed by Jean Grammet between 1930 and 1940. In 1952 a new instrument was designed for the church by the company Jacquot-Lavergne. It seems that this organ was installed in 1953. Whether is was a rebuild of the Delmotte organ or entirely new is not certain. However, the pipe organ was removed from the church during demolition.
