Built by: Ernst Leeflang (1968)


  • Ernst Leeflang built a new organ in 1967-1968 for the Reformed Church on the Parkstraat in Velp in Gelderland. Harry Meek from Apeldoorn designed the wood carvings. The organ was inaugurated on February 29, 1968 with a concert by Arie J. Keijzer.
  • As of September 2006, the building was no longer in use by the Protestant church. The hall center under the church was operated under the name Parkstaete. The church hall was rented to an evangelical congregation, who did not use a pipe organ during their services. The organ fell out of use. In August 2013 it was sold to a chapel of a Catholic school in Lisbon, Portugal. On August 25, 2013, the organ was said goodbye to in Velp during a special singing service. The next day it was dismantled.
  • In Lisbon the organ is placed in the Igreja de São João de Brito. This church belongs to a Jesuit school, that was dedicated to the Imaculada Conceição in 1955.
