Stichting Stevenskerk Nijmegen manages the historic Sint-Stevenskerk (Saint Stephen's Church) in Nijmegen. Originally constructed in the 13th century as a collegiate church dedicated to Saint Stephen, the building underwent significant alterations over the centuries, including periods of Catholic and Protestant worship. Following damage during World War II, extensive reconstruction took place in the 1950s and 60s. Today, while no longer used for regular religious services, the Stevenskerk functions primarily as a cultural center hosting concerts, exhibitions, and other events. The foundation is responsible for the preservation and management of this landmark building and its role within the community. The church’s acoustics are noted for their resonance, making it a popular venue for musical performances.
