Basilica of Our Lady, Romanesque minor basilica in Binnenstad, Maastricht, Netherlands

The Basilica of Our Lady features a tall westwork with two narrow towers and Gothic vaults added to the nave in the 13th century.

The religious structure stands on a site that contained a Roman temple and potentially the first Christian church in the Netherlands during the fifth century.

The treasury displays religious artifacts including embroidered vestments, the Levite Dress of Saint Lambert, and numerous silver objects and procession banners.

The basilica maintains regular opening hours for worship services and visitors at Onze Lieve Vrouweplein 7, offering guided tours of the architecture and art collection.

The building contains two enormous stones from the original Roman fortress, integrated into the base of its westwork structure.
