Facts and practical information

Maria and Brigida Church is the parish church of Hoog Geldrop, located at Papenvoort 4 there. The church building was designated a national monument in 2000.

It is a neo-Gothic church building designed by Hendrik Jacobus van Tulder. It is a three-aisled cruciform basilica with a west tower. This tower has five rows and is covered by a constricted needle spire.

The interior of the church is polychromed and there is still a nearly complete neo-Gothic inventory. Only the pulpit has disappeared. The neo-Gothic high altar contains an effigy executed in limestone. Several other neo-Gothic statues also adorn the church. The high vaults present in the building are notable.
