St. Ludger, Religious monument in Spork district of Bocholt, Germany

St. Ludger is a church building in the Spork district of Bocholt, constructed with traditional materials common to the region. The structure displays architectural elements that reflect different building periods, visible in both its exterior and interior spaces.

St. Ludger was built by Bocholt architect Carl Tangerding (1891–1936); the foundation stone was laid on 12 June 1932 and the church was consecrated on 28 March 1933. It stands on the site of a cement velodrome used from 1898 to 1912. The 68,709 Mark construction cost and a further 30,000 Reichsmark for bells, windows, organ and altars came from donations by the Spork parish. It has been a listed monument since 1984.

The church is dedicated to Saint Liudger, whose figure stands on a console beside the main facade. The building was financed by donations from the Spork community, and the Capuchin Father Sigbert Wagener served here for many years. The parish belongs to St. Georg in Bocholt.

The church stands on the site of a cement velodrome oval laid out in 1898 and used until 1912; the parish bought the land in 1919 at an auction of parcels of Haus Heidefeld. The entrance is a small porch with wind lobbies and a baptismal chapel on the main facade. The organ gallery is reached by two staircases, and a stairway is attached to the side of the 23.5 m tower.

The church stands on the site of a cement velodrome laid out in 1898 and used until 1912. The plot was bought at auction in 1919 from parcels of Haus Heidefeld, whose former inn hall served Spork's Catholics for services from 24 October 1919 until it was demolished in 1933.
