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

The Sint-Vincentiuskerk features a Latin cross layout with three naves, a transept, and a tower rising 93 meters into the Flemish sky.

The current church structure, completed in 1883, replaced several previous buildings damaged by lightning strikes, wars, and deterioration over the centuries.

The interior walls display murals created between 1909 and 1912 by Leon Bressers, depicting figures from both Old and New Testament narratives.

The church opens daily from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM, with guided tours available through the Clara parish office.

Archaeological excavations in 2005 revealed ancient foundations beneath the church floor, now visible through a specially designed opening.
