The Sint-Josephkerk is a former Roman Catholic church at Nassaulaan 4 in Alkmaar.
In 1908 it was decided to build a subsidiary church for the Sint-Dominicuskerk. The architect was Albert Margry, who was assisted by his partner Jos Snickers. Margry also designed the adjacent parsonage. In January 1909 the preparatory work was started, after which the foundation stone was laid on 26 March of that year. On 31 December 1909 the church could already be consecrated. On 25 April 1910 the church was officially consecrated. On 15 November 1922 the new parish of Sint-Joseph was established and the church continued independently.
It is a three-aisled cruciform church in neo-Gothic style. On both sides of the front facade there is a small stair tower. In front of the church there is a statue of Christ the King. After the liturgical changes of the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s, the interior was changed. The floor of the chancel was raised and altars, the pulpit and communion benches were removed. Between 2006 and 2007, the church was again refurbished, with meeting rooms and offices being built in.
The church was used by the "Parish of the HH Matthias Laurentius in Alkmaar" until 2019. On 1 July of that year, the church was closed and the parish continued in the Pius X Church and the St. Laurentius Church. The church building is protected as a national monument and cannot be demolished. The church is being converted into an apartment complex and a small public chapel is being built. The statue of Christ in front of the church will remain.[1] (Wikipedia)
