  • In 1964, a new organ was installed in the church of Kettenis by Hans Koch & Hans Lorenz, also know as the Merksteiner Orgelbau Anstalt Sankt-Willebrord. It replaced an instrument by the Gebr. Müller from 1864-1865. The new organ had electric action with twenty stops. The organ was dedicated on December 20, 1964.
  • Due to a fire in the church, the organ was damaged (about 1993/1994). In 1998 a entirely new organ was built by André Thomas.
