  • For the Reformed Church in Gulpen, the firm Gebr. Müller a new organ in 1845. The instrument was placed on a gallery in the balustrade. At the beginning of the twentieth century the disposition was adapted to the taste of the time. The Mixtuur and the Trumpet disappeared, a new Gamba was placed and a Voix Céleste instead of the Flute 4'.
  • A new church building was completed in 1966. The Pereboom company from Maastricht transferred the old organ to this church. The original disposition has been reconstructed. The original stop name inscriptions were still present. The newly installed Trumpet was made by Müller around 1860. It comes from another organ, where the Trumpet has been replaced by a Mixture.
  • In 2019-2020, a restoration of the organ has been carried out. The building isn't in use as a church for some time, but after a renovation it has been taken into use as a multifunctional building with the name 't Gulper Hoes.
