Heilige Drievuldigheidskerk
Heilige Drievuldigheidskerk stands in Berchem, a district of Antwerp, as a parish church with yellow-brick walls. Its south-facing façade combines concrete construction with stained-glass windows depicting the Holy Trinity. A bell tower rises beside the main building.
Gustaaf Van Meel designed the church, which took shape between 1931 and 1933. Nieuwe Zakelijkheid gives the architecture its functional, straightforward character, while Art Deco adds geometric decorative details. Concrete supports create a modern structure, and the parish church continues to serve local worship and community life.
Look closely at the façade: coloured glass brings the Trinity into the building through a distinctly early twentieth-century design. The combination of yellow brick, concrete, Nieuwe Zakelijkheid, and Art Deco captures Antwerp’s architectural change during the interwar period.
