St. Clemens Church in the middle of the village is the main attraction. Three churches have stood on this site over the centuries. The first stone church dates from 1350-1400, followed by a three-aisled cruciform church built between 1420-1440. After a fire in 1612, the current church was built in Kempen Gothic style, with parts of the previous church integrated. Between 1887 and 1889 the church was given a neo-Gothic interior. Vincent van Gogh painted the church in 1883.

In 1620, after a fire in 1612, the current church was built, in which remains of the previous church can still be found, which was built in Kempen Gothic . The church was used for Protestant worship from 1648-1798, after which it became Catholic again. Between 1887 and 1889 the church was given a neo-Gothic interior.
