The Sint-Corneliuskerk is a church building in the Heerlerheide district in the municipality of Heerlen in the Dutch province of Limburg. On the west side of the church is the lower Corneliusplein. The church stands on a church hill and next to the church is the cemetery. In 1834, the inhabitants of the village of Heerlerheide asked the bishop for their own parish church because the distance to the Pancratius church in Heerlen center was very far. In 1839, after intensive lobbying with the bishop of Liège, which then included Limburg, Heerlerheide was finally split off from the Pancratius parish. Out of gratitude to the then bishop Cornelis van Bommel, Saint Cornelius was chosen as patron saint of the new parish.
