Église Saint-Georges de Limbourg, Catholic church in Limbourg, Belgium

The église Saint-Georges de Limbourg is a church in Belgium with foundations reaching back to the 1100s. The building features a solid western tower, multiple side naves, a polygonal choir with tall pointed windows, and a Gothic crypt below.

The church began as a small chapel in the 1100s and was gradually expanded starting in the 1400s. In the 1400s it became a major church with a chapter of canons, and it underwent multiple changes due to fires, warfare, and restoration efforts over the centuries.

The church is named after Saint George, patron of knights and of Burgundy, to which Limbourg belonged in the 15th century. Since its reopening on 19 April 2026 it has served both for Masses, weddings and baptisms and for concerts and exhibitions. The floor of the nave is itself a burial ground, set with tombstones of 17th- and 18th-century notables.

The church reopened on 19 April 2026 after renovation and now hosts Masses, weddings, baptisms, concerts and exhibitions. The main entrance is the Gothic portal in the west tower; the crypt is reached from inside the choir and from outside. The choir and crypt project beyond the old town wall over the rock spur.

The 1520 stone theotheca is a monumental sacrament house, not a book niche: it kept coloured traces of its former polychromy and carries bas-reliefs of religious scenes. A small neo-Gothic turret of the late 19th century crowns it.
