Berg — a marlstone church on the Limburg plateau

The spire at Monulphusplein marks the village of Berg from the paths around the plateau.

The Dutch heritage register records that F.P.J. Peutz and W. Sprenger designed the parish church, completed in 1933 with walls of local marlstone. Its pale stone makes a useful starting point for reading the landscape. North of the village, the Geulhemmerweg descends towards dwellings cut into the marl hillside.

Written by Le Roi du Village. It sets out what is documented, not what is worth seeing.
