Facts and practical information

St. Martin's Church was a church building in the southern inner city of Utrecht on the Oudegracht canal. The present St. Martin's Church, successor of a hideaway church there, was designed in neo-Gothic style by architect Alfred Tepe and built in 1899-1901. The church from 1899 replaced an older church at the site which dated from 1753. This church was demolished to make way for the new building.
