More than peat – From seven centuries of the Parish of St. Nicholas Meijel

This richly illustrated history book has been published on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the current St. Nicholas Church in Meijel. It describes the development of the local parish from its vague thirteenth-century origins to modern times, including the seven consecutive (emergency) churches and the destruction of the "Cathedral of the Peel" in 1944. Through stories about historical parish priests, chaplains, and sextons, the reader also gains a fascinating insight into daily life in this distinctive Peel village.
