Sint-Vincentiuskerk, Neo-Gothic parish church in Eeklo, Belgium.

Sint-Vincentiuskerk is a Neo-Gothic church in Eeklo designed by architect Modeste de Noyette, with a Latin cross plan, three naves, and a transept. Its brick tower, one of the tallest in Flanders at 93.4 m, is topped by a central spire flanked by four smaller turrets. The tower's front face has a round clock with gold numerals and two tall pointed-arch windows with stone tracery.

The current building was completed in 1883 and replaced earlier churches that had been damaged by lightning, warfare, and decay over centuries. The new construction arose from the need to protect the parish from losing its place of worship.

The walls were painted between 1909 and January 1912 by the Ghent firm Léon Bressers. The nave shows figures of the Old and New Testaments, while the choir displays forty saints painted on linen, all born or active around Eeklo, plus the locally revered pastor Pasianus.

The church is typically open during daylight hours on weekdays, though hours may vary depending on services and special events. The location in central Eeklo makes it easy to visit on foot.

The tower was long believed to be 99 or 100 metres tall; a professional survey at the start of 2013 established its true height at 93.435 metres, making it one of the highest church towers in Flanders. Four small turrets flank the spire.
