In the 8th century, an abbey was founded on Sint-Petrusberg by three Anglo-Saxon priests: Plechelmus, Wiro and Otger. No visible remains of this abbey church have survived. In the 11th and 12th centuries, the church was completely replaced by the present church. Despite the fact that it is not the original abbey, this church is just as old.
The building was restored between 1880 and 1883 by P.J.H. Cuypers. Because many of the original parts have been reconstructed, it is very much worth a look.
