  • The organ in the Sint Laurentiuskerk in Hove was built in the years 1776-1777 by Joseph Delhaye. It was placed on a rood screen by Johannes Neef, built in 1772. The organ was repaired by De Smet in 1824 and expanded in 1865 with a positive. In 1925 a wind engine was installed.
  • The organ was completely restored in the years 1967-1969 by the company Pels-D'Hondt. It was moved to the choir of the church. It was re-dedicated on October 24, 1969 with a concert by Stanislas Deriemaeker. The company Pels-D'Hondt almost built a new organ in the old case. Very little old pipe work remains.
