Basilica of Saint Servatius

Really nice visit. This is a church that has it all, museum, crypt, chapels, archaeological excavation and an inner patio.

You can visit the whole place in just 30min to 1h. It’s not that big, and the museum is quickly viewable. The treasury has many gold artifacts including relics and other objects made from wood and/or ivory.

Don’t forget to visit also the Bergportaal, it’s really and incredible entrance.

The price is only €4,50. Debit was accepted.

There’s a self-help tour that costs 4.50 Euro to get to the inside the main church. Make sure you get a pamphlet before entering the main church. It’s a great way to donate to the church and you’ll get to see the main chapel as well. It’s a win win situation.

This basilica has this amazing strong church scent, a room with history slideshows and other valuable artifacts. It’s a beautiful cathedral.

A must see in Maastricht!! Part of the Basilic is converted into museum. There is a map-guide (included with a 3€ ticket) describing the most important elements of the church. So the self tour is sufficient.

Fantastic basilica which is the largest Romanesque church in the Netherlands. St. Servatius is saint patron of city of Maastricht. The treasury contains impressive collection of Christan artifacts i.a. relics of St. Sevatius and St. Cosmas & Damian.

If you're interested in chruch then this is a must visit when visiting Maastricht. The entrance is free to common areas and allows pics but rest area is paid.

Located on the Square of Vrijthof and next to St. John's Church, Basilica of Saint Servatius is of Roman Catholic Origin, which could be dated back as early as 570 AD. Mainly in Romanesque Style with the influences of Gothic and Baroque during its extension and restoration, it is a rare find even in Europe where These Architectural Movements were based. With its long history, there is no shortages of Treasures at this Basilica.
Renowned as the Birthplace of Euro, Maastricht is Rich in historical Buildings: the Basilica of Our Lady, another Romanesque Styled Church that might be dated back before 11th Century; St John's Church in Gothic Style that was founded in 14th Century; and a 17th Century City Hall on Market Square; etc, etc. Plus the Architecture of former St. Lambert Church that was completed in 1916 is also very impressive. Maastricht is a hidden gem awaiting for your discovery indeed. Two photos attached.

a very old superb Basilic where you can sense the old religious history of Holland.

It was closed when we went, but the building is beautiful to admire from the outside. Never seen a cathedral made from this type of bricks

This is the central church on the main square of Maastricht.
See the opening hours because you can’t enter whole day long.
The little chapel is open much longer.

Very beautiful church! I have not seen any other church like this. This was just speechless! I have more than 10 pictures from this church only. Recommended!

What a church! Such an unbelievable architectural feat. Very impressive building that resembles history, culture and the city of Maastricht.

The basilica is a very beautiful church with a nice garden and an interesting treasury.

Simply beautiful. I've heard there was an entrance fee, but to visit the common area of the church it was free of charge, and the paid visit to the extra areas was already closed at 4:30pm, but it was worth the visit anyways. Although there is not much rooms to visit you can spend some time if you like to pay attention to architecture details. Although there are many tourists it is still a really good place to pray and think.

Very beautiful church inside, nice collection of ancient pieces, also you can see some important Armenian Christian relics.

An nice church with an great history. And some great guids tour you around and tell you about the history of it.

Very beautiful! A must when visiting Maastricht! Do not forget to vidit the treasury, where you will find some amazinv artifacts and relics. There is an entrance fee, but is small (3 euros only). Be aware that in the Sunday afternoons there might be different religious concerts inside the church, but you can still visit the treasury.
