In 1885-1886, a new organ was built by the company Delmotte for the church of Ohain. The organ was dedicated on May 22, 1886, with a concert by Edmond Delcourt, organist in Tournai. The original prospect pipes were removed in 1917 and replaced in 1922 by new zinc pipes. Jean Grammet worked on the instrument in 1954, and the company Pinchart in 1961. A restoration was carried out by Bernard Cogez in 1998. Marina Tchebourkina played the rededication concert.
