Facts and practical information

The Saint-Joseph church is a religious building located on Place Jean De Paduwa in the Brussels commune of Evere.

It was under the impulse of Father Jean De Paduwa, born in Wambeek on January 29, 1837 and deceased on July 20, 1906, parish priest at the Saint-Vincent church in Evere, that it was decided to build the Saint Joseph church. In primary Gothic style, it was built from 1904 to 1906 by the architect B. Smet de Thames and inaugurated on April 22, 1906. It was restored between 1988 and 1990.

The parish of Saint Joseph is part of the Meiser pastoral unit, which is itself part of the deanery of Brussels North-East.

Saint Joseph is the patron saint of Belgium.
