At dusk, the picturesque Vrijthof square in Mstricht, Limburg, Netherlands comes alive with the enchanting presence of Sint Janskerk. Standing tall on this historic square are two magnificent structures - Sint-Janskerk on the left and Sint Servsbasiliek on the right. The sight is truly a feast for the eyes. As you gaze upon this architectural marvel, your attention is drawn to a masterpiece within its walls. "The Adoration of the Magi, " created by none other than Pieter Paul Rubens himself around 1619, adorns one of its sacred spaces. This exquisite artwork adds an air of reverence and beauty to an already awe-inspiring place. But Sint Janskerk's charm extends beyond Mstricht. In Gouda, South Holland, another tower belonging to this church can be found overlooking the tranquil Gouwe canal. It serves as a reminder that Sint Janskerk holds significance not only in Limburg but throughout the Netherlands. Within its hallowed halls lies history waiting to be discovered. The Lords Montfoort Memorial Tablet stands as a testament to those who have come before us and their contributions to society. This memorial table serves as a poignant reminder of our shared past and collective memory. Sint Janskerk shares its space with another grand structure - Sint Servsbasiliek or Basilica of Saint Servatius. Together they create an impressive skyline that captures both religious devotion and architectural splendor. From Vrijthof Square itself, one can witness this breathtaking view - St John's Church (Sint Janskerk) standing side by side with St Servatius Basilica (Sint Servsbasiliek). Their harmonious presence against the backdrop of Limburg's stunning landscape leaves visitors in awe.
