Description

Det er ikke sikkert, hvornår der for første gang har været tale om Berchem. Ifølge legenden skulle Willibrordus, biskop af Aarhuskirken i Utrecht, have besøgt den lille landsby Berchem i begyndelsen af det 8. århundrede. Han byggede en bederum der. Willibrordus er nu patron for sognet. VTB rejste i 1962 et monument for "Sankt Willibrord".
Sen-gotisk kor og tværskib (1486-1516) i kirken, samt altere, prædikestol, skriftestol, orgel, gravmæle for Marie-Anne af Berchem (1663), har været beskyttet siden 1953. En række kragesten, med engle og skjold, stammer fra årene omkring 1500. Tårnet og facaden blev derimod først færdiggjort i 1850. Interiøret samler forskellige stilarter, primært barok. Men for eksempel blev de 23 farverige glasvinduer (af L.C. Crespin) først anbragt i 1950-52.
Ved siden af kirken er den røde bøgetræ, med en krone på 35 meter, beskyttet som monument siden 1949.
