Hervormde Kerk

Boven-Hardinxveld, NL

Important neoclassical church with roof turret. The current church building was put into use on 16 February 1862. Before that, there was probably already a chapel on the same site, dating from Roman Catholic times. This was therefore already built before the Reformation. This chapel was probably partly destroyed during the Eighty Years' War and was also once ravaged by fire.
