Neo-Gothic church with tower.

Roman Catholic CHURCH of Saint Lambertus, built in 1923 and 1924 to a design by the architect Wolter te Riele (1867 - 1937) in neo-Gothic forms. Te Riele had also built the nearby rectory on the Sint-Lambertusweg in 1913. The first drawings for the church date back to the period 1912-1914. It is not entirely clear why the construction of the church ultimately took another 10 years, but it is likely that the uncertain political and financial situation after the outbreak of the First World War played a role in this. Construction began on 17 September 1923. The church was put out to tender for f.62,500. The parishioners themselves did the groundwork from 21 October to 10 November. The first stone was laid on 21 January 1924 and the church was put into use on 13 December of that year. The church was only consecrated on 20 June 1927 by Mgr. AF Diepen, bishop of 's-Hertogenbosch. The small three-aisled village church with a central entrance tower is located on the south side of the Twijnmeer and belonged to the municipality of Boxtel until 1997.

St. Lambertus, 1876-1881, PJH Cuypers. Single-nave neo-Gothic cruciform church in sober brick shapes with a tower, crowned by a spire. Wooden barrel vaults.

Replaced the medieval predecessor destroyed in the Second World War. Large three-aisled hall church with atrium (forecourt), projecting transept and large tower at the side of the choir, provided with a slender openwork, octagonal superstructure. The choir is crowned externally by a lower round tower with spire. Internally provided with a concrete skeleton (pillars, vaults), thus innovative in Romanesque church construction in the 1950s. Highlight in the late oeuvre of AJN Boosten, completed shortly after his death (1951), in freely conceived traditionalist forms, influenced by Romanesque and early Christian architecture. Important modern glazing from the construction period by G. Franssen and J. ten Horn. Also important medieval INVENTORY including: late Gothic holy water font of bluestone; the shutters of a South Netherlandish triptych, 16th century, a series of late Gothic wooden statues, of which the most remarkable are a St. Agnes and a St. Catherine; paintings, some of which originated from and were brought to safety in October 1944 from the previous church, which was destroyed later that year.

Neo-Gothic church. The tower was added separately in 1891 to prevent settlement. The tower was blown up by the Germans on 26 October 1944 and after the war it was only restored to the height of the nave and adorned with a saddle roof. The interior features beautiful brickwork that is polychromed here and there.

The church is in fact the successor (in the Catholic sense) of the church of the neighbouring village of Lambertschaag , also dedicated to Saint Lambertus. This church was transferred to Protestant hands during the Reformation , after which the Catholics had to use clandestine churches . In 1816 the clandestine church was replaced by a real church, located on the site of the current church. This church was enlarged in 1854.
