The Catholic parish church of St. Georg is a listed church building at the old churchyard in Haldern , a district of Rees in the Kleve district ( North Rhine-Westphalia ).
History and architecture
The congregation was incorporated into the collegiate church in Rees since 1229 .
The three-nave neo-Gothic pseudo-basilica of brick was from 1874 to 1876 according to plans by Heinrich Wiethase built. From 1921 to 1922, under the direction of J. van Aaken, it was extended to the west by two additional aisles of three bays each . The two basement floors of the west tower , which is divided by pointed and clover-leaf arches , are from a previous building from the second half of the 13th century. The two upper floors were made of brick in the 15th century.
