  • The firm Van Vulpen built a new organ for the roman catholic parish church of H. Pastoor van Ars in Tilburg in 1965. In 1973, after this church closed, the instrument was sold to the Gereformeerde Kerk in Deventer, where it was installed in the new building called "Het Open Hof", that was dedicated in 1970. The transfer was made without changes by the company Van Vulpen. It was taken into use in Deventer on June 16, 1973.
  • The church was closed in September 2012 and sold in 2017 to another congregation, that didn't use a pipe organ. The instrument was sold to the Herz-Jesu-Kirche in Mörlenbach-Weiher in Germany. It was relocated by Van Vulpen and could be dedicated in 2018.
