- In 1837 François Loret built a new organ for the Sint Amandus church in Strombeek-Bever. It was built with sixteen registers on two manuals and attached pedal. The old organ of the church was transferred to Neder-Over-Heembeek. In 1889 the organ was overhauled by the Gebroeders Van Bever.
- The organ was renewed in 1922-1923 by the company Stinckens & Co. from Strombeek. It was then rededicated on February 2, 1923. The disposition has been modified radically. The organ now had 18 registers and an independent pedal. Mr. Stinckens installed a electric blower in 1928, and the organ was completed by them in 1941-1942. It was inaugurated on June 28, 1942. On this day Gwijde Van Grunderbeek, laureate of the Lemmens Institute, gave a concert on the instrument.
