Mariapark, resting place for pilgrims Due to the large influx, the basilica became too small to accommodate the number of pilgrims after a few years. Therefore, a Mariapark was created opposite the church. A misleading name, because in reality it is a cloister with an inner garden, surrounded by a neo-Gothic way of the cross gallery.
The garden is separated from the street by a wide porch, a resting place for the pilgrims. From here you have a view of the interior of the church. The Mariapark is a special national monument, where you can now enjoy a variety of activities and exhibitions.
The Mariapark is one of the wonder locations on the Route full of Wonder. During this cycling route through the Grensmaas valley, more than 30 locations can be visited digitally when they are not open to the public. Curious about the stories or want to take a look inside?
