Sint-Catharinakerk is a Catholic church located in the heart of the city of Eindhoven, the Netherlands. The church is dedicated to Saint Catherine of Alexandria, who is the patron saint of the city.

The church dates back to the 13th century, with its oldest parts being the tower and the choir. The nave, transept, and chapels were added during the 14th and 15th centuries. The church is built in the Brabantine Gothic style, characterized by its ornate decoration, large windows, and pointed arches.

During World War II, the church was heavily damaged in a bombing raid in 1942, but it was later restored. In the 1950s and 60s, the church was further renovated and expanded.

Today, Sint-Catharinakerk is a popular tourist attraction in Eindhoven, known for its beautiful stained glass windows, sculptures, and paintings. The church hosts regular religious services, as well as concerts and cultural events throughout the year.
