Heilige Joachim

De Moer, NL

Large, important neo-Gothic church with tower. In 1894, De Moer became an independent parish. Before that, the area belonged to the parish of Loon op Zand. When the parish was founded, a temporary wooden church was placed that had been taken over from Dussen. In 1902, this was replaced by the current church, designed by CF van Hoof from Tilburg. The consecration by pastor AHF Kamp took place on 2 February 1902, after which it was consecrated on 6 June 1903 by W. van der Ven, bishop of 's-Hertogenbosch. The pastor had a brother, Joachim, who had been a chaplain and had died at a young age. Out of love for him, and in his memory, the pastor chose St. Joachim as the patron saint of his newly founded parish. At the initiative of pastor Kamp, a veneration of St. Anna (feast day 16 July) was created. After his death in 1939, this quickly declined. In the fifties of the previous century the last pilgrims came to visit the place. Behind the church is the cemetery where pastor Kamp, who died on September 22, 1939, is also buried.

The Kudelstaart station was founded in 1661. Churches were held in a wooden shed on the Robend. In 1822, a three-aisled neoclassical church was built, which was restored in 1837 after a flood. In 1868-1870, the west side was provided with a nice neo-Romanesque facade with built-in tower by Th. Asseler (consecrated 22-4-1870). In 1959, modern paintings and Stations of the Cross were already installed. The original furniture was removed in 1968-1969 and the interior was drastically modernized at that time.

In 1920, construction began on the new church, designed by A. Boosten in Maastricht and J. Ritzen in Heerlen.
