Pipe organ of Candé castle, Pipe organ at Château de Candé, France

The pipe organ of Candé Castle is a residence organ built in 1928 by Ernest Martin Skinner, installed in the castle library. Its console has three stacked manuals, rows of round stop knobs, and wooden pedals, set in a dark wooden case with a glass panel and a "PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH STOP KNOBS" card. The console faces the library, with the organist's back to the wall.

Charles Bedaux, who bought Candé in 1927, ordered the residence organ from Ernest Martin Skinner in 1928 as opus 718; it was assembled and tested in the United States, then rebuilt in the castle library in 1928-1929. Marcel Dupré inaugurated it in August 1930. On 3 June 1937 Dupré played it for the wedding of the Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson, the civil ceremony taking place in the library itself.

The organ played during the wedding ceremony of the Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson in 1937, marking a notable moment in British royal history. This event connected the instrument to an international historical occasion.

The organ stands in the castle library, not a chapel, with the console facing into the room and the organist's back to the wall. A card above the manuals reads "PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH STOP KNOBS"; the three manuals and the pedalboard are visible below. Restoration ran from 2005 to 2012, and the instrument has been back in service since 2015.

This instrument is one of only three functioning Skinner residential organs remaining worldwide and can be played both manually and with automatic rolls. This dual capability makes it a technically notable example of early 20th century organ craftsmanship.
