The neo-Romanesque St. Antonius Church, as we know it today, was built in 1873-1875 as a replacement for the former barn church. The church was consecrated on 12 September 1875. At the end of the Second World War, the 63 m tower was blown up by the Germans, a large part of the church was destroyed. The church was then rebuilt in 1948 in neo-Romanesque style, without a tower. In the church there is a model of the church in all its glory, with the tower as it was the landmark of Lepelstraat until October 1944.
