Heilige Jozef

Delfzijl, NL

Roman Catholic parish church of St. Joseph from 1925. Replaced a smaller, nearby church from 1819, which stood at the current Johan van der Kornputplein.

With elements of Neo-Romanesque, in 1927, to a design by architect Joseph Franssen from Roermond, a CATHOLIC CHURCH was built in honour of Saint Joseph. The architect was Johannes Duijf and the contractor was Fincken from Stevensweert. The church is connected to the adjacent rectory on the right side, and on the left and rear side is the Catholic cemetery. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

Heilige Jozef

Hooglanderveen, NL

During the Reformation, the Catholics in this region were served by Jesuits from Nijkerk. Services were held in 't Veen in the 'Sandhuysken'. Later, the residents of 't Veen came under Hoogland and went to church in Hoogland (an hour and a quarter's walk) or Amersfoort (no less than 1 to 2 hours' walk). Around 1853, the desirability of establishing a separate parish for this part of Hoogland and Hoevelaken was first mentioned. Due to all kinds of difficulties, the plans for a separate parish could not be realised until 1917. The population of Hooglanderveen had increased in the meantime, partly due to the construction of the railway. This increase in families also caused problems with regard to catechism education for children who had to travel far too far for this.

Heilige Jozef

Enschede, NL
