Sint-Bonifatiuskerk

Sint-Bonifatiuskerk is a church building featuring neoclassical design with a wooden bell tower on its facade and three interior naves separated by wooden barrel vaults. The interior layout follows traditional church proportions and preserves the original structural elements from its construction period.

The building was constructed between 1822 and 1826 under the direction of city architect P. Plukhooy during a period of urban development. An organ was installed in 1842 by craftsmen Kam and Van der Meulen, establishing it as a focal point for community gatherings.

The space reflects changing uses over time, with architectural elements adapting to serve different community purposes. Today visitors can sense the layered history through the rooms that once held worship and later hosted live music gatherings.

The building stands at Wijnstraat 117 and is easily recognizable by its distinctive wooden bell tower. Today it serves multiple purposes with different tenants occupying various sections, so entry conditions depend on which area you wish to visit or what event is taking place.

Some of the organ pipes inside the instrument date back to the 18th century and are attributed to pipe maker Hendrik Hermanus Hess. These older components show how historical materials were reused when the organ was later installed, blending two different building periods.
