  • The Müller organ of the Saint Bernardus Church in Ubachsberg was dedicated on August 20, 1887. However, it was replaced in 1986 by a new organ. The Reijnen company from Roermond took the old instrument, restored it and placed it in the company shop. The organ has a second keyboard, all of which are transmissions from the first manual. In 2009 the organ was restored by the Reijnen company and installed on the chancel of the Bernardinus Chapel, Akerstraat in Heerlen. The Gamba 8' had been replaced by a Roerfluit 4'.
  • The organ was dismantled at the end of 2017 and after restoration it was re-installed at the beginning of 2018 in Ubachsberg. The transfer was carried out by the Reijnen company.
