- The Sint Urbanuskerk in Belfeld was built in 1945, after the previous church on the Markt was destroyed by war violence. In 1963 the Vermeulen company from Weert placed an organ in the church. Consultant was Nico Zeyen from Roermond. The organ has fourteen stops (including two extensions) on two manuals and pedal.
- In 1985 the organ was cleaned by Vermeulen. They also expanded the instrument by placing a second wind chest for the second manual with three new stops. Two stops that had been prepared for were also installed on the first manual. The Trumpet 8' was reworked to a Schalmei and was transferred to the second manual, while a new Trumpet was manufactured for the main manual. On manual II a Sesquialter was placed instead of the originally planned Scherp III ranks. Huub Wolfs from Maastricht was the consultant for the work. When the organ was re-dedicated on May 25, 1985, the instrument was played by him.
