Internationals

The Heilige Lodewijk (Saint Louis) is situated in the center of the city of Leiden in The Netherlands. Our group of English speaking parishioners, who are visiting and actively participating in our parish-life, is expanding. We hope that also you will have a warm welcome and have "a-home-away-from-home" in our beautiful church.
