Sint-Petruskerk, Neo-Romanesque Catholic church in Vught, Netherlands.

The three-nave church features an octagonal lantern above the crossing, round towers at transept corners, and walls constructed of brick with natural stone elements.

The church building, completed in 1884, replaced a predecessor from the fourteenth century and underwent modifications after the north transept collapsed during construction in 1882.

The interior contains wall paintings by C. Grips, stained glass windows designed by Carl Weber, and an 18th-century silver reliquary with relics of Saints Machutus and Bernoldus.

In 2018, the building transformed into DePetrus community center, now housing the Library of Vught, Vught Museum, World Shop, and multiple community organizations.

The church structure incorporates both Neo-Romanesque and Rhine Gothic architectural elements, with cloverleaf-shaped closures and flying arches supporting the transept bays.
