Heilige Hubertus

In 1933 the parish was founded and separated from the parish of Beek. That year the rectory was also built to the design of architect Stephan Dings from Beek. In the period 1936-1937 the church was built to the design of architect Alphons Boosten from Maastricht. The church was designed inspired by the façade of the Romanesque Basilica of Our Lady in Maastricht and was built in a romantic-modernist style. The church is considered one of the most important exponents of the so-called Limburg Reveil, a regional art movement from the Interbellum that often found its inspiration in a self-confident, personal and romantic approach to its own native region. Artists who contributed to the creation of the church building are Henri Jonas, Charles Eyck, Joep Nicolas, Charles Vos, Gisèle Waterschoot van der Gracht, Jacques Verheyen, Jef Scheffers, Yvonne Trypels and Eugène Quanjel.

Heilige Callistus

Roman Catholic Church and parsonage of St. Callistus in Neerbeek, 1933, designed by architect AJ Kropholler in Wassenaar. Built in a sober traditional architectural style influenced by the Delft School, which sought a new interpretation of the traditional norms and values ​​of the past as a reaction to the modern architecture of the Nieuwe Bouwen. The Callistus Church is situated at the intersection of Aldenhofstraat and Laurentiusstraat / Callistusplein and is also fully oriented to the east. The engineering firm Henri Huydts in Maastricht acted as the structural engineer. The northern transept of the church was not built. In 1982, the southern transept was converted into a day chapel, with the pointed arch-shaped dividing arch between the choir and transept being closed with yellow, clean brickwork. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.
