    The church of Schin op Geul was built in the eleventh century, the nave of the church dates from that time. It is one of the oldest churches in Limburg.

    In the many centuries that followed, the church was expanded and renovated several times (most recently in 1927) into the current structure of marl and Kunrader stone.

    Special are the nine seventeenth and eighteenth century grave crosses and the tombstone of the De Villers de Pité family, former owners of East Castle.

    The building consists of a flat west tower with a narrowed spire, a three-aisled nave, a transept, and a choir. The church is considered one of the oldest churches in Limburg. It is dedicated to Saint Maurice.

    The church building is constructed partly of Maastricht limestone and partly of Kunrade limestone.

    The Sint-Mauritiuskerk is a Roman Catholic church on the Kerkplein in Schin op Geul in the Dutch South Limburg municipality of Valkenburg aan de Geul. It is located on a church hill at an important intersection in the village. Around the church is the cemetery and around it is a retaining wall of marl. Both the building and the retaining wall are national monuments.
