The current choir organ is an instrument of Robert
Boisseau in the old buffet constructed in 1863 and
designed by Viollet-le-Duc, who was responsible for the
comprehensive restoration of the cathedral at that
time. Due to poor maintenance and unsuccesful
restorations, the original instrument of Merklin was
considered to be in such a poor condition that it could
not be saved. Robert Boisseau built a new instrument
of 28 stops (later 2 additional stops were added). In
1989, the Chalumeau of the pedal was replace by a
Clairon. In 2005, the organ was cleaned by Philippe
Guyonnet and tuned by Bertrand Cattiaux. In 2010,
further works were carried out by Bertrand Cattiaux
and a new console was installed.
This organ is built in a French-classical style.
