Heilige Mattheus

Eibergen, NL

Roman Catholic parish church of St. Matthew in Eibergen. The parish of Eibergen is old. Until the Reformation, it used the old, late Gothic Matthew Church, the current Dutch Reformed Church. At the end of the eighteenth century, the Catholics of Eibergen attended church in a barn church that was served by Franciscan fathers from Zwillbrock in what was then Prussia. In 1824, a so-called water board church was built. After the restoration of the episcopal hierarchy in 1853, the water board church was replaced by a neo-Gothic church by architect Tepe. That happened in 1876.

Heilige Matthias

Oploo, NL

The mainly Neo-Gothic CHURCH of the parish of Saint Matthias, founded in 1730, was built in 1730-1732 as a barn church, next to the later disappeared medieval chapel and was rebuilt in 1834-1835 in the Water Board style after a restoration in 1800. In 1890 a new choir with two transepts was built, after which the tower was raised in 1905 and clad with machine bricks. In 1929 a large-scale extension took place according to plans by HC van de Leur, with a second transept, boys' and girls' chapels and sacristy. All renovations from 1890 onwards took place in Neo-Gothic style, whereby the roof construction of the barn church from 1730-1732 was preserved. A date stone in the south aisle. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.
