More about this church
Description
The Church of Our Lady ter Snow in the East Flemish municipality of Destelbergen is dedicated to Mary. The title ter Sneeuw has to do with an apparition of Mary that is said to have occurred in the fourth century, during the pontificate of Pope Liberius, causing snow to fall in August.
In the 10th century, there is already a mention of a church building in Destelbergen. The current church from 1784 is the work of pastor Servranckx (1702-1792) religious of St Peter's Abbey in Ghent.
The church was consecrated in 1792 and has since been repaired and adapted many times. It was last restored between 1993 and 1996.
