The beard house in the Roman Catholic cemetery in the Dutch town of Heesch is a national monument.
The beard house was built in 1865 to a design by Carl Weber and was placed in the Roman Catholic cemetery behind the former Peter-Bandenkerk in Heesch, which was built in the same period. The structure has a rectangular base, with a buttress at each corner, and is built in neo-Gothic style. In the north wall is a niche with a crucifix with above it written: Mission 1875. In addition to the crucifix, statues of Peter and Paul were later added. In the masonry are laid light yellow bricks in cross shape. In the rear part of the beard house there is a small storage room that is accessed on the south side.
