The St. Cyriacus and St. Francis Church
A very prominent landmark of the Hoorn townscape is the St. Cyriacus and St. Francis Church from 1879-1882. Due to the impressive octagonal dome, this Roman Catholic Church is also known as the ‘Dome Church’. There are two towers at the front of the building. The Dome Church is a pioneering design by the Hoorn architect AC Bleijs, and combines Baroque, Renaissance, Romanesque and even Eastern forms.
