Before 1836, the Basilica on the Market Square was a simultaneous church, which means that both Catholic masses and Protestant services were celebrated. The cooperation between the Catholics and the Protestants was not really smooth.

The Belgian King Leopold I, also Protestant, gave the Protestants a church that was named after him: the Leopold Church.

With this he wanted to reduce the tensions and the pricks between the Catholics and the Protestants in Limburg, which was then governed by Belgium. The Leopold Church is a brick hall church with a gable roof.

The facade is plastered. The organ in the church is already a monument in itself and was built by the famous organ builder Joseph Binvignat.
