- In 1941 the firm Pels & Zn. an organ for the Sint Caecilia Church in Rietmolen. Pipework from the previous organ, probably an instrument of Adema from around 1880, was taken over during construction. The console has two manuals. However, the pipework for the second manual was not installed.
- The organ is mentioned in the Sint Gregoriusblad of February 1951 under the heading 'Orgelnieuws'. It is unclear why it was published here. The organ may have been repaired by Pels.
- The church building is for sale and has to be closed at last on January 1st, 2026 due to the shrinking of the parish.
