Mevlana Moskee

Second Roman Catholic church in Hilversum (after the St. Vitus church). Important neo-Gothic church, on a centralising plan, with a hexagonal crossing with a high roof turret. Very important early work in the oeuvre of Wolter te Riele (1867-1937).

Important, unique monumental neo-baroque church with dome. Replaced a nearby clandestine church. Restored after a fire in 1958. The interior has its current appearance since then.

Characteristic work from the oeuvre of Hendrik W. Valk (1886-1973) from 's Hertogenbosch, designed according to the so-called Christocentric design (priest's chancel at the intersection of nave and transept). The wide, brick-vaulted nave is flanked by two side aisles; against the tower two transepts. The interior is entirely built of beautiful brickwork. Characteristic are the sculpted apostle heads by Jozef Cantré (1890-1957) and the painted Stations of the Cross by Lodewijk Schelfhout (1881-1943). The stained glass windows are by Joep Nicolas (1897-1972). The robust, relatively low tower body is crowned by an imposing spire.
