The Saint Joseph Church was a Roman Catholic church at the pilgrimage site of Saint Joseph in the village of Smakt near Venray in the Dutch province of Limburg.
As early as 1699, a chapel dedicated to Saint Joseph was built, after which Smakt slowly grew as a pilgrimage site. In 1880, rector Franciscus Cremers ensured that the pilgrimage to Smakt developed significantly. Cremers had a new rectory church built next to the chapel that was enlarged in 1864, which served both the Catholics of Smakt and Holthees, but was also used by the pilgrims.
