I could finally visit the Synagogue in Lille. From hearsay, it was fitted with an organ. Worse, in 1845, the Jewish community sparked a scandal when the first organ was introduced in the former Synagogue - an unauthorized innovation. Lille was one of the first communities in France to purchase such a goy thing; German communities had experimented with organs about one generation earlier.
As a matter of fact, the current "organ" is not only out of order (though not beyond repair), but it is a reed organ - a king-size one, designed as a substitute of pipe organs in bigger buildings.
