This organ, known as the "zaragozano," was built in Aragon during the second half of the 17th century. The wooden cabinet is decorated with polychrome and gold stucco in the form of stylized vegetal patterns and geometric elements, especially on the exterior of the doors, which also feature Arabic script. The cabinet is topped with a carved, gilded, and polychrome heraldic shield, crowned and adorned with five crosses, three of which are from Montesa. The front of the keyboard is decorated with stuccoed and polychrome draperies and floral elements, with an image of the Virgin in a medallion at the center. The keyboard consists of 42 keys, from C1 to A4, made of dark-stained boxwood for the natural keys and light-colored for the altered keys, with a notched front.

The organ operates with a suspended mechanical action and features a combination of whole and divided registers. This means that instead of a single stop lever for each set of pipes, there are two, one for the left half and one for the right half of the keyboard. This is a tabletop positive organ, placed on a table rather than standing on the floor. Outside the case are two wedge-shaped bellows, and the order of the wind chest and the arrangement of the pipes follow the natural order of the notes and keys. The tuning is set to A at 440 Hz.
