  • In 1966 the company Van den Berg & Wendt built an organ for the Pinksterkerk (Gereformeerde Kerk), Camplaan 18 in Heemstede. This church was built in 1956-1957 to a design by Chr. Nielsen. Jan Pasveer from Zaandam was consultant during the construction of the organ. The organ was put into use on April 1, 1966.
  • Since the end of 2006 the building has been used by the Protestant Church Netherlands Heemstede-Bennebroek (PKN). In 2018, the church was sold to Stadsherstel Amsterdam. The building will remain in use for various rehearsals, among other things. The organ was donated to the parish in Frauenberg, Moselle. It was transferred to the Église Saint-Jacques-le-Majeur in this place by Hubert Neu. On June 16, 2019, the organ could be dedicated on the new location.
