Oude Sint-Willibrorduskerk, Romanesque church in Waalre-dorp, Netherlands
The stone structure features a 12th-century tufstone nave, Gothic elements, and a 15th-century tower located at Oude Torenstraat.
The current building replaced a wooden church established by Saint Willibrord around 712, with major modifications completed during the 15th century.
The church functions as a memorial chapel for Brabant soldiers, with annual provincial commemoration ceremonies broadcast on Omroep Brabant each September.
The municipality of Waalre maintains this Rijksmonument as a venue for ecclesiastical ceremonies, including baptisms, weddings, and memorial services.
The tower contains what might be one of the oldest complete functioning clock mechanisms in the world, dating from approximately 1360.
