Martinuskerk, Hillegom, Catholic church in Hillegom, Netherlands.

The Martinuskerk features a three-nave basilica design with high pillars, pointed arch windows, and a wooden barrel vault containing polychrome decorations.

Between 1924 and 1926, architect H.P.J. de Vries led an extensive renovation that expanded the original 1871 structure with a new transept and choir.

The church houses a Maarschalkerweerd organ from 1901 with 28 registers, inaugurated with a concert by composer Philip Loots.

Located at Hoofdstraat 27 in Hillegom, the Martinuskerk serves as the primary Catholic church for the Holy Willibrord Parish in the region.

The bell tower contains a historic bell named Maria Josephus, cast in 1872, weighing 825 kilograms with depictions of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.
