Heilige Bavo

Heilige Bavo

Angeren, NL

Three-aisled hall church with front tower, built in a traditionalist style under the influence of the Bossche School. Also influenced by Romanesque and early Christian architecture. This church replaced the neo-Gothic church of WVA Tepe from 1878, which was destroyed at the end of the Second World War.

Heilige Bavo

Heemstede, NL

Replaced the predecessor from 1817. Three-aisled neo-Gothic cruciform basilica with high west tower, characteristic work in the oeuvre of EJ Margry (1841-1891), pupil of Dr. PJH Cuypers, influenced by early French Gothic. Interior with wooden barrel vaults (main naves) and brick cross-rib vaults (side naves). During the liturgical renovations in the 1960s, the interior was simplified and painted white. Around the same time, the current, modern stained glass windows were installed. The octagonal superstructure of the tower was once flanked by four corner pinnacles. These were later demolished, probably due to dilapidation.

Heilige Bavo

Harmelen, NL

On the Ambachtsherenlaan, on the corner with the Joncheerelaan, a three-aisled Roman Catholic CHURCH of the pseudo-basilica type was designed in 1916 by Jan Stuyt in neo-Romanesque style. The church is built on a cross-shaped floor plan with a higher, elongated central nave covered by a saddle roof and lower, shorter side aisles of three bays wide, which are covered with hipped roofs. The roof covering consists of red old Dutch tiles with decorative gable tiles along the eaves. The choir is covered with slate tiles. The gables are provided with decorative patterns in brickwork. In a number of these patterns, the recessed sections are provided with a white-painted plaster layer. A chequered frieze of white and braised tiles has been placed in a number of places under the eaves. Bands of black-coloured brick have been incorporated into the barrel vault of the entrance. A semi-circular apse with five round-arched windows has been placed against the east facade under a six-sided roof slope; the semicircular apse is provided with mosaic. To the right of this, between the nave and the apse, is an octagonal stair tower under a tent roof. On the northeast side, the sacristy is placed against the side nave under a saddle roof with a lower ridge height, parallel to the nave. A second sacristy is placed against the southeast side with a lower ridge height under a saddle roof. On the northwest side, a semicircular baptismal chapel has been built out with a slate covering in mesh covering. On the southwest side, a tower has been placed in the armpit of the side and central nave under a slate-covered, slightly incurved spire. On the top is a weather vane in the shape of a cross with a tower cock. The tower has three sections. Halfway along the first section, a black and white chequered frieze has been applied. In the second section, above two narrow windows in each side of the tower, a diamond-shaped dial has been provided with a clock. The third section contains two sound holes in each side with a frieze above them; There is a brick balustrade in the sound holes.

Heilige Bonifatius

Rijswijk, NL

The original Bonifatius parish was founded in the 13th century. The Oude Kerk, located in the centre, was converted to Protestantism during the Reformation . In 1784, a small clandestine church was built for the Rijswijk Catholics, which was enlarged in 1855. At the end of the 19th century, however, the church proved to be too small and in 1889 construction began on a new Bonifatius church, which was consecrated in 1897.
