Roman Catholic parish church, built in 1836 by Th. Molkenboer. It was the first openly Catholic church after Catholics were allowed to profess their faith publicly again from 1798. The original dome tower was replaced in 1892. The name refers to the Hartebrug, which lay here over the (now filled in) Mare. Popularly called the Coeliekerk, after the saying on the facade: "Hic domus Dei est et porta coeli" (Here is the house of God and the gate of heaven).

The Hartebrugkerk (Heart Bridge Church) is named after the bridge that once stood in front of it.
Officially, it is called the Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, but popularly it is called the Coeliekerk (Coelie Church), after the Latin motto "Hic Domus Dei est et Porta Coelie" (Hic Domus Dei est et Porta Coelie) above the gate.
Porta Coelie means "gate to heaven" in Latin.
The building was designed by Theo Molkenboer, a renowned church builder of his time.
The Hartebrugkerk dates from 1836.
