- In the years 1717-1719, Jacobus van Eynde built a new organ on a baroque separation arch from 1682 between the nave and the church's choir in the cathedral of Bruges. The positive received a facade to the choir of the church, and the main work was turned to the nave. Various organ builders worked on the instrument in the nineteenth century. Van Peteghem (1804) and Destoop (1850) did not modify anything fundamentally, but Hooghuys (1854) and Cloetens (1902) radically rebuilt it.
- The organ was completely rebuilt in 1935. The old main work was given a place on the west wall of the church. Two pedal towers were added on either side, while the positive was hung under the main work. The German firm Klais made a largely new interior for the organ. This instrument was inaugurated on July 20, 1936 with a concert by Flor Peeters, during a congress about church music.
- The organ was dismantled in 2015. The Klais company built a new organ with the Klais material from 1935, which is placed on the tower side. The Schumacher company built a reconstruction of Van der Eynde's organ in the old organ cases, expanded with four pedal stops. The cases have been restored and the whole is placed on the east side of the south transept, with the positive case facing the choir aisle. The organ was festively inaugurated on June 3, 2023.
