DSCF0228.jpg Organ dates from 1732, built by Rudolf Garrel. It was a gift to the church by Govert van Wijn, on the occasion of his 90th birthday. The instrument is considered as one of the best in Holland, known for its super sound and the many possibilities it has to interpret 'music from all ages'.
