Jean-Baptiste Stoltz and Nicolas Schaaff built an organ for the Église Saint-Jacques in Douai in 1850. In 1879 a new organ was built for this church by Pierre Schyven, and in 1880 the organ was transferred to the Église Saint-Vincent in Marcq-en-Baroeul. It has been overhauled several times over the years: in 1935 by Antoine Séquiès, in 1971 by Jean Pascal, in 1985 by Bernard Cogez and in 2001 by Olivier Bernard.
