De Regenboog

Sint Pancras, NL

The church building De Regenboog was built as a Reformed Church in 1972; it replaced a smaller building on the same site.

He also wanted you to be able to look outside while sitting in the church. In 2016, De Regenboog was renovated and redecorated, using furniture from the Trefpuntkerk in Alkmaar, which closed in early 2016.
