Sint-Dionysiuskerk, Medieval church in Asselt, Netherlands
The Sint-Dionysiuskerk stands on a church hill in the floodplains of the Maas river, featuring a distinctive tower on its eastern side.
The original wooden structure from 934 was replaced around 1100 with a stone church incorporating elements from a Roman hypocaust system in its walls.
The church contains notable artistic elements including stained glass windows by Joep Nicolas and Hubert Levigne, plus a 12th-century Romanesque baptismal font.
The building maintains its function as an active parish church, with regular religious services held within its Neo-Romanesque nave and Romanesque choir.
The church tower was relocated to the eastern side in 1515 after the original Romanesque tower collapsed due to erosion from the Maas river.
