Last update of the year: Gelderland

The very last update of this somewhat strange year concerns some pages in the Gelderland section, all with several new  pictures and much enhanced text. These are the Stefanus in Zoelen (picture) and the St. Maarten in Tiel, as well as the Gasthuiskapel and St. Maarten in Zaltbommel. The page about Zaltbommel municipality now shows a few more village churches.  

Alfred Tepe part two

An update to the last update: the pages about three of Alfred Tepe's most important churches have new pictures and improved text. These are the St.Michaël in Schalkwijk (picture), the Onze Lieve Vrouwe ten Hemelopneming in Houten and the St. Nicolaas in Ijsselstein, all in the province of Utrecht.

Alfred Tepe updates

An update at last. Due to personal issues I have little time or attention for structural updates and this will probably last for a while. Still, my activities have not come to a stand still and new pages have been in the works, only taking longer to complete. Today five pages of churches designed by Alfred Tepe were added. In the Gelderland section these are the St. Pancratius in 's-Heerenberg, the St. Martinus in Baak and the H. Georgius in Bredevoort, in the Noord-Holland section the St. Antonius in Kortenhoef (picture) and in the Utrecht section the St. Willibrordus of Everdingen. That section also now has a much improved page about the St. Michaël in Schalkwijk.

Another architect

A new page has been added, about architect J.W.A. van Gils (1864-1919) and his ecclesiastical works. To accompany this page there's also a new page about his church St. Nicolaas en Gezellen in Delft.

Architects

Pages about two architects were added, each about a son of a major neo-Gothic architect and both mostly working in the province of Limburg. See the pages about J.H.J. Kayser jr. (1879-1963) and J.G.C. Franssen (1893-1968, architect of the church in the picture). And of course I intend to updated these later.

The list of works of N.J.H. van Groenendael has undergone some important changes, with some works deleted and others added, as well as a picture or two. Pictures and/or objects were also added to the pages about the Oomen brothers, W. van Aalst, W. te Riele, J.Th.J. Cuypers, J.H.H. van Groenendael and C.J.H. Franssen. 

Back again with a Limburg update

It's been a long time ago since the last update. There have been changes but most of these were small ones. Today's update is a little bigger. First, the page about the city of Roermond now covers the municipality and contains churches in most of the villages around the city. The pages about the Munsterkerk and the Minderbroederskerk in Roermond itself have a few pictures added or replaced, as has the one about the St. Dionysius in Asselt.

Then there's a big update to the page about the Maasgouw municipality. Seven objects were added while several pictures were replaced. New pictures also at the pages about the St. Martinus in Linne and the St. Gertrudis in Maasbracht. Entirely new is the page about the St. Stephanus in Stevensweert. 

Big Wolter te Riele update

 

After the A.J.N. Boosten theme last December I decided to have a good look at the work of another architect, W.A.M. te Riele, the last neo-Gothic architect of the Netherlands and a very productive one too. In the past months several pages about some of his churches were improved already and mentioned as an update, like the 

• Arnhem (G): H. Hart van Jezus
• Lichtenvoorde (G): St. Bonifatius 
• Lonneker (Ov): St. Jacobus de Meerdere

Now I'd like to present to you some more:

• Koewacht (Z): St. Philippus en Jacobus 
• Oldenzaal (Ov): Allerheiligste Drieëenheid
• Ossenisse (Z): St. Willibrordus 

With the latter page I'm not quite satisfied, but it still is better than it was.

But more interesting are the following six new pages: 

• Eindhoven-Gestel (NB): St. Lambertus
• Stampersgat (NB): H.H. Martelaren van Gorcum
• Veldhoven-Dorp (NB): St. Caecilia
• Hooglanderveen (U): St. Joseph
• Kamerik (U): St. Hippolytus 
• Werkhoven (U): O.L. Vrouw ten Hemelopneming

Which brings the total number of pages about specific churches by Te Riele to 23, not counting enlargements.
