The parish church of Sint Martinus in Tongelre was built in neogothic style in the years 1890-1891. The building is designed by Emmanuel Corbey. Remarkable is that the two towers on the west facade have never been completed. The church was dedicated on June 8, 1891. The previous parish church, dating from the 13th century, was demolished.
An organ was installed in the church by the company Gebr. Gradussen from Winssen. This instrument has served until 1939, when it was replaced by a new organ by the Vermeulen company of Weert. They probably used pipework from Gradussen in this instrument. Consultant was W.G. Kerssemakers. The organ was dedicated on June 4, 1939, with a concert by Piet van Marist, organist of the Sint Trudokerk in Eindhoven-Strijp.
In 1962 a restoration was carried out by Vermeulen, under consultancy of Hub.Houët.
Because of the bad state the organ was in, it was taken out of use in 2002. An electronic instrument was installed on the choir of the church. The pipe organ has been demolished afterwards, only the prospect is still standing on the organ gallery.
