In 1848 the chapel was built here, using the building materials that were left over from the construction of the Saint Augustine Church in Elsloo. ’t Bluuske is the name for the chapel of Catsop. Bluuske is a contraction of belhuuske (little bell house). The chapel had a dual function. It was not only a chapel, but also the carrier of the alarm bell of Catsop. In case of fire and unrest, the bell was rung, and then all able-bodied men had to gather (there were high fines for not showing up).
