Due to the sale of one of the church buildings of the Protestant church in Sittard (Municipality Maas- en Beekdal), the organ, built in 1966 by L. Verschueren, is now surplus to requirements.
Van den Heuvel-Orgelbouw in Dordrecht has been commissioned to find a new location for this organ.
In 1891 Léon Verschueren founded an organ building shop in Heythuysen. After the Second World War, the company also became more active abroad and grew into one of the larger organ building
shops in the Netherlands. In the mid-1950s, the shop employed as many as 100 people. The Johannes church and its organ were built in 1965/1966. The organ, built under the advice of E.
Barendrecht from Geleen, is listed in Verschueren’s work list as opus 674 and it was inaugurated on May 27th, 1966.
