Year | Builder | Opus | Activity | 1643 | Boudewijn LeDou | new organ | 1969 | Joseph Loncke & Zn. | restoration |
- In 1643, Boudewijn Ledou built a beautiful organ for the Church of Our Lady in Watervliet. The organ case was designed by Jacques Sauvage from Ghent, who also made the wood carvings. Over time, the organ was modified several times, the last being a romantic conversion in 1910 by the Reygaert company from Geraardsbergen. This actually built a new organ with main and swell work in the old main work case, while the case of the positive was left empty.
- The organ was severely damaged by war violence in 1944 and could no longer be used. After several plans had been made, a reconstruction of Ledou's original work was chosen, but with an independent pedal. The consultant was Professor Gabriël Verschraegen. The Loncke company built the organ using some old stops. It was put back into use on April 13, 1969. Gabriël Verschraegen played the inaugurational concert.
