This church was built in 1922 and replaced the old St. Salvius Church, which was preserved despite the fact that it was withdrawn from worship. Architects were Pierre Cuypers Jr. and Jos Cuypers. The church was made of irregular blocks of Nivelsteiner sandstone, and a traditionalist, neo-Romanesque style was used. To the right of the front facade is a large square tower, covered by a tent roof. It is a three-aisled basilical church with a nine-sided apse. On the south side there is an eight-sided baptistery. The nave and side aisles are covered with barrel vaults. Round-arched arches separate the nave and side aisles. The main altar dates from 1922, an altar stone embedded in it dates from the 16th century. The base and drum of the baptismal font are 12th century. The font itself has been renewed. From the first quarter of the 16th century is a wooden triptych in the style of the Master of Elsloo. There is a polychromed wooden pieta from the 16th century. Jan van Steffeswert made a wooden statue of Saint Barbara. There is a polychromed statue of Mary from around 1600. A polychromed statue of Saint Salvius dates from the fourth quarter of the 17th century. A gilded wooden statue of Mary is from the first half of the 18th century. A statue of Saint Joseph dates from the fourth quarter of the 18th century. The stained glass windows are from the Nicolas studio. The church has twelve paintings from the 17th, 18th and the first quarter of the 19th century. The offering block is from 1655 and bears the text: O Gott bedenck den poor. Near the church is the Sacred Heart statue.
