Sint-Sebastianuskerk, Catholic church in Herkenbosch, Netherlands.
Sint-Sebastianuskerk is a parish church in Herkenbosch with brick walls, a western tower, and an early Gothic choir section. The main hall is divided into four sections that work together with the choir to create the full interior space.
The original building dates to the 13th century and was constructed in limestone. Late in the 1800s, architect Johannes Kayser redesigned and expanded it significantly in Neo-Romanesque style.
The church shapes the appearance of Herkenbosch village and displays how building styles evolved from medieval times through later periods. Walking through it, you can see how different architectural approaches were combined over the centuries.
The church sits at Hoofdstraat 21 and opens regularly for visitors who want to see inside. It is helpful to check opening times ahead of your visit to plan accordingly.
In 1994 the church tower received a new spire topped with a large rooster weathervane that stands out against the sky. This striking addition was part of a modern restoration that renewed the historical structure.
