Nederland - Utrecht, Sint Willibrordkerk

The Sint Willibrordkerk (Saint Willibrord's Church) is one of the finest remaining examples of the 19th-century Utrecht school of the Gothic revival. It was built between 1875 and the church is almost completely hidden from view by its surrounding buildings. Sint Willibrordkerk is considered being one of the most beautiful neo-gothic churches of the Netherlands.

The original and very special interior, comes as a complete surprise for the visitor. The rich furniture and welth of decorations of the church was almost completely designed and made in the workshop of the German sculptor W.F. Mengelberg, who had gained experience from the restoration of the Cathedral of Cologne. The windows in the southern wall and the carvings on the pulpit depict scenes from the life of St Willibrord, the missionary who converted the people of the northern Netherlands to christianity.
