Sint-Remigiuskerk, Roman Catholic parish church in Simpelveld, Netherlands
The Sint-Remigiuskerk features a Neo-Romanesque design with three naves, constructed entirely from regional Kunrader limestone with rounded windows and an apse.
The first documentation of a church at this location dates to 1147, when Simpelveld belonged to the Diocese of Liège, with Saint Remigius dedication occurring in 1203.
The church inventory, designated as a national monument since 2005, includes historical elements such as communion rails, pulpit, organ gallery, and confessionals from 1500 to 1949.
Major renovations between 1921 and 1925 by architect Caspar Franssen included the addition of new choir areas, a sacristy, and large transepts to accommodate population growth.
The church underwent complete reconstruction of its tower and nave from 1935 to 1937 under architect A. Swinkels due to continued space limitations for the congregation.
