D2 This instrument was originally built by Merklin in 1880. It was restored and revoiced by Gonzalez in 1968, with changes to the specification, the addition of mixtures, and the removal of the neo-Gothic case. In 1987, the organ was restored by Bernard Dargassies. A cleaning and tuning were carried out by Dargassies in 2001, during which the register motors (Télétechnique) were replaced with new Laukhuff solenoids. In 2025, a new overhaul was completed by Jean-Baptiste Gaupillat. The pedal stops are extended. Photo on the left: Jeroen de Haan
