  • The organ in the Sint Adrianuskerk in Adegem was built in the years 1724-1730, probably by Louis Dell'Haye. In 1780 it was expanded by Lambert Van Peteghem. It was radically renovated in 1959 by the company Jos. Loncke and expanded. The traction is made electric. The case was partially removed and the organ. On August 23, 1959, the renewed instrument was inaugurated. Gabriël Verschraegen played the inauguration concert.
  • In 2009 Jan Lapon performed a reconstruction of the original instrument. He also expanded the organ with a new independent pedal with three stops. It was re-installed back in the church in early 2010. The official re-dedication took place on October 31, 2010. The organ was played by Edward De Geest on this occasion.
