  • A positive organ with three ranks was built in 1971 by Ernst Kühn for Paul Schoonbroodt. The organ has been located in many churches: Église du Saint-Sacrement in Liège from 1971 until 1973, then in the Église Saint-Barthélémy until 1978, from 1978 until 1981 in the couvent of Quiévrain, then in the chapel of Saint-Lambert in Verviers until 1984, in the church of Saint Peter in Steffeshausen until December 1984 and in the chapel of Auel until 1988. Finally, the organ was installed in the chapel of Saint Pius-X in Steffeshausen that year, and was trasnferred in 1991 to the Herz-Jesu-Kirche, built on the location of the chapel.
  • It seems that the organ has been replaced in 1996 by the new Weimbs organ. It is unknown where the Kühn organ has been since.
