Roman Catholic Church of St. Lambertus. Gothic building modified by extensions, consisting of a 15th century tower, a three-aisled basilica nave from the beginning of the 18th century, a lower 16th century transept next to which a similar second transept was built in 1911 with eastern choirs, and a deep and low choir in Gothic shapes, also built in 1911. These extensions were designed by the architect F. Ludewig. Flat tower, at the foot of the nave during the construction period, sheathed with a projecting section of brick, interspersed with layers of tuff stone, as also occurs on the nave and transept.

In the old transept star vaults on figuratively sculpted corbels. In the Mary chapel five-sided rib vault, of which the keystones and corbels are decorated with angel figures.

Heilige Lambertus

Gemonde, NL

Roman Catholic CHURCH of Saint Lambertus, built in 1923 and 1924 to a design by the architect Wolter te Riele (1867 - 1937) in neo-Gothic forms. Te Riele had also built the nearby rectory on the Sint-Lambertusweg in 1913. The first drawings for the church date back to the period 1912-1914. It is not entirely clear why the construction of the church ultimately took another 10 years, but it is likely that the uncertain political and financial situation after the outbreak of the First World War played a role in this. Construction began on 17 September 1923. The church was put out to tender for f.62,500. The parishioners themselves did the groundwork from 21 October to 10 November. The first stone was laid on 21 January 1924 and the church was put into use on 13 December of that year. The church was only consecrated on 20 June 1927 by Mgr. AF Diepen, bishop of 's-Hertogenbosch. The small three-aisled village church with a central entrance tower is located on the south side of the Twijnmeer and belonged to the municipality of Boxtel until 1997.

Heilige Lambertus

Horst, NL

Replaced the medieval predecessor destroyed in the Second World War. Large three-aisled hall church with atrium (forecourt), projecting transept and large tower at the side of the choir, provided with a slender openwork, octagonal superstructure. The choir is crowned externally by a lower round tower with spire. Internally provided with a concrete skeleton (pillars, vaults), thus innovative in Romanesque church construction in the 1950s. Highlight in the late oeuvre of AJN Boosten, completed shortly after his death (1951), in freely conceived traditionalist forms, influenced by Romanesque and early Christian architecture. Important modern glazing from the construction period by G. Franssen and J. ten Horn. Also important medieval INVENTORY including: late Gothic holy water font of bluestone; the shutters of a South Netherlandish triptych, 16th century, a series of late Gothic wooden statues, of which the most remarkable are a St. Agnes and a St. Catherine; paintings, some of which originated from and were brought to safety in October 1944 from the previous church, which was destroyed later that year.
