More about this church

Description

The oldest parts of St Peter's Band Church, the early Gothic tower, date from the 11th or 12th century. The underlying choir from the 14th-15th centuries.

And 1906, the previous church was demolished and a larger nave and transepts were built in neo-Gothic style. This retained the tower and choir.

The interior is also predominantly neo-Gothic. Remarkably beautiful are the works by Zeelse artist Aloïs De Beule. He made the Stations of the Cross and the high altar.

The 1880 organ by Petrus Vereecken (Gijzegem) was transferred from the old church.

The cemetery of Uitbergen surrounds the church.
