- The Van Vulpen company built an organ with one manual and an attached pedal for the Reformed Church in Opheusden in 1955. In 1966 it was expanded with a positive organ and an independent pedal. Lambert Erné was consultant during the construction of the organ. The church was transferred to the Hersteld Hervormde Kerk in 2004.
- Major maintenance was carried out by Reil Orgelbouw at the beginning of 2023 under consultancy of Aart Bergwerff. The Mixtuur II-V of the pedal has been replaced by a Roerquint 6'. The organ was put back into use on May 14, 2023. On this occasion it was played by Aart Bergwerff and the own organists.
