- The organ in the parish church of Tillières-sur-Avre was built in 1858 by Louis and Robert Damiens. It was originally built for the church in Le Goulet. In 1890-1892 is rebuilt by Louis Debièrre in the Église Abbatiale Saint-Nicolas, 124 Rue de la Place Notre Dame in Verneuil-sur-Avre. The organ case of Damiens was used, and parts of the pipework. Fernand Senteur repaired the instrument in 1980. In 2007 the organ was relocated to Tillières-sur-Avre by Jean-Jacques Mounier.
