Built on old backfilled gypsum quarries, the Church
of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus is perched ahead
of a flight of white steps. Its façade is composed of
apparent Saint-Maximin cobblers, sawn and
coarsely paired with deep cement joints. It is
topped by a square bell tower containing three
bells. This tower is transformed into appartments.
Its modest dimensions and warm interior give it an
air of village church.
The first organ of the church was installed around 1937
(Pleyel, II/17). It was an old house organ built by
Cavaillé-Coll. In 1979, it was transferred to the new
church by Erwin Muller and re-harmonized in 1984 by
Jean-Marc Cicchero. Following damage from the great
storm of 1999, the instrument was deemed irreparable.
In 2007, Pels-Dhont installed a used instrument built in
1947 for the church of Wapenveld (the Netherlands).
In 2021, Gaël Coutelier installed a new electronical
transmission . The console including its location is also
modified .
In a second round, the organ will be completely
reharmonized (the organ was not changed when it was
installed in 2007, exept for the buffet, which was
adapted to the tribune of the church).
