  • The organ in the Église Saint-Étienne in Beauvais was built in 1651. In 1815 it was restored and modified by François-Pierre Dallery. He rebuilt and expanded the organ, for which he took over the pipework from the original organ of the Église Saint-Etienne (from 1651), the Abbaye Saint-Paul and the Saint-Michel and Saint-Sauveur de Beauvais churches.
  • Other restorations followed in 1835 by Pierre-Marie Hamel and in 1869 by Charles Barker. In 1954, the Jacquot-Lavergne company carried out a reconstruction. A last revision was carried out in 1995.
