On Henric van Veldekeplein, the red tower of St. John's Church rises above the square. The church is situated directly next to the impressive St. Servatius Church. During the thirteenth century, the canons of St. Servatius Church thought the ordinary believers should have a parish church so that they would be able to perform their services in St. Servatius Church in peace.
