  • The organ in the parish church of Saint-Hadelin was constructed in 1734, but the maker is unknown. It can be attributed to Jean-Baptiste Le Picard, but this can not be proven. Another theory is that the organ was installed second hand in 1873 by Arnold Clerinx. In that case, both builder and original location are unknown. It is certain that Clerinx carried out some renovation work around this time.
  • In 1976, André Thomas installed a new wind blower and restored the bellows. In 1979, two ranks were removed by him, that didn't belong to the original instrument, namely Voix Céleste and Flûte Echo. The intention was to install a Fourniture 4 ranks.
