Maria Minor, Protected church building in central Utrecht, Netherlands

The Maria Minor church features a neo-gothic entrance facade and maintains medieval cellars within its architectural structure at Achter Clarenburg street.

Between 1860 and 1863, architect Th.G. van Doorn designed this building to replace an older hidden church that served the former Buurkerk parish.

The church contains a two-manual organ made by Johan Frederik Witte in 1890, representing the musical heritage of religious institutions in Utrecht.

Located at Achter Clarenburg 4, the former church operates as a restaurant while preserving its historical architectural elements under Rijksmonument protection.

Many interior decorations from Maria Minor were transferred to Saint Gertrude's Cathedral, yet the building retains its original basement from medieval times.
