The Saint-John-Evangelist church in Tervuren has a long and interesting history. Throughout the centuries, many things have changed and different building styles can still be found. The oldest remaining part of the church is the Romanesque tower, which dates from the 13th century. The west façade is Classical and dates from 1779. The rest of the building was built in the Gothic style. Originally there were three tombs of important Brabant dukes, but these were destroyed during the iconoclastic period in the 16th century. A unique feature can be found right outside the north side of the church. In 1897, there was a World Fair and a total of 267 Congolese were brought to Tervuren to live in ‘traditional villages’. This exposition was an attempt of King Leopold II to justify colonialism in his ‘Belgian Congo’. Seven of the transferred Congolese did not survive the summer and were buried next to the church.
