Sint-Willibrorduskerk, Neo-Gothic church in Sappemeer, Netherlands.

The Sint-Willibrorduskerk features a high altar, decorative murals, stained glass windows, and a distinctive architectural design by Pierre Cuypers.

Construction of the church took place between 1872 and 1873, following several design revisions to accommodate budget constraints and community needs.

The church holds stained glass windows transferred from Sint-Martinus Church, along with a baptismal font from 1846 and a crucifix from 1800.

Visitors can explore the church every Wednesday morning and Saturday afternoon from May through September, with extended hours during Heritage Day.

The spire collapsed during a severe storm in 1972, leading to the installation of a new one in 1973 and subsequent designation as a national monument.
