Beautiful organs classified as "Monument Historique" built in 1668 by Charles Royer.
Classified as "Monuments Historiques", they were built from the end of 1668 to the beginning of 1670 in 1668 by the Flemish organ builder Charles Royer; Originally the instrument had only one manual and ten stops (pedalboard in drawbar)
The walnut case (1668/1669) was gilded in 1756 by Borrelly of Marseille. The builders Gazeau and Bormes (1801/1811) made the instrument with two manuals. The organ has 23 stops and about 1200 pipes. 80% of the 1668/1670 stops and 88% of the 1801/1811 stops are preserved. The case was classified as a historic monument in 1970 and the pipework in 1972. The transmission is entirely mechanical, with a window console. The organs were restored in 1988/1990 and 2017.
