House before church
Start downstairs and follow how living, working and storage are organised in the building. The narrow route gradually reveals the transition to the attic church.
Church in the roof
The altar, galleries and pews show how a large place of worship was fitted into existing houses. Look at the supporting structure and the access routes without mistaking concealment for complete invisibility.
Mass on the first Sunday
From September to June, a service takes place on the first Sunday and the museum opens at 11.00. The space then first fulfils a living religious function.
Before you go
Daily 10.00–18.00; on the first Sunday from September to June from 11.00, and closed on Christmas Day and King’s Day.
