Description

St. Martin's Church is the parish church of Houthalen, on Sint-Martinusplein, in the municipality of Houthalen-Helchteren, Belgium.
The church was first mentioned in 1223, but the parish is probably older. Originally there was a Romanesque church here, but at the beginning of the 15th century the construction of a new, Gothic church began. The choir was founded in 1437, as evidenced by the inscription: int iaer ons heren MCCCCXXXVII waert desen coer ghefondeert. The tower was built around 1500. It is not known whether the ship was built around 1437 or around 1500. All these parts are made of mesh boulders and marl.
