Sint-Pancratiuskerk, Neo-Gothic Catholic church in 's-Heerenberg, Netherlands

The Sint-Pancratiuskerk is a Neo-Gothic Catholic church on Hofstraat in 's-Heerenberg featuring three naves, cross arches, and a tall tower topped with a narrow spire. The building displays Gothic revival style with colored glass windows and notable roofwork.

Construction took place between 1895 and 1897 under architect Alfred Tepe, who shaped the Neo-Gothic design. A generous donor from the princely house financed the project substantially, making the ambitious building possible.

The church is named after Saint Pancras and reflects the town's deep Catholic heritage. The interior shows how the community invested in fine craftsmanship and music to honor its worshippers.

The church sits centrally on Hofstraat in 's-Heerenberg and is easily reached on foot from the town center. The interior offers pews and space to explore the architectural details and windows at a leisurely pace.

Above the priest's choir hangs a cross with an unusual origin story: it was donated by a resident who had grown wealthy through smuggling. This quirky tale connects the sacred space to an odd chapter of the town's past.
