Saint Norbert - 2018 (Zurenborg)
Image
De Sint-Norbertuskerk aan de Dageraadplaats in Antwerpen is een open kerk, een oase van rust in de stad, waar mensen elkaar vinden om op een open en warme manier samen te geloven. Wij zijn een onderdeel van de grote Rooms-Katholieke gemeenschap en bouwen deze samen uit, tijdens de vieringen, maar ook daarbuiten. De Sint-Norbertuskerk nodigt uit tot rust en verinnerlijking, tot vieren en delen. Muziek is een belangrijke pijler in de Sint-Norbertuskerk, tijdens de liturgie en bij evenementen. Muziek verbindt en versterkt het Woord. Er wordt hier dan ook bijzonder veel aandacht besteed aan verantwoorde keuzes en kwalitatieve uitvoeringen.
Heden staat de voorkant in de steigers, de ingang bevindt zich langs de Korte Altaarstraat.

Saint Norbert
The Neo-gothic Saint Norbert's church was built between 1901 and 1904 in the Zurenborg district.
Around 1850 Zurenborg consisted mainly of meadows, orchards and a few farms. After the demolition of the Antwerp‘s ramparts and the expansion of the railway lines, the city was considerably enlarged and the district was transformed into an urban area. It was the initiative of nobles, John Cogels and Edouard Osy, who created a real estate company for this purpose in 1881
Already in 1883 a temporary chapel based on a design by Albert Arnou was put into use at Dageraadplaats.
In 1901, the present neo-Gothic church was built. Architect Ernest Dieltiens drew his plans, taking into account the wishes of the church factory, and designed a classical church building in neo-Gothic style. He himself described his final design as “ simple, but suitable”.
In the brochure “Sint-Norbertuskerk 1904-2014” a walk through the church is proposed in which important elements from the interior such as the stained glass windows, the mosaics, the paintings, the high altar and the side altars, ornaments, statues and much more are described.
