Protestantse Kerk

Sint Nicolaasga, NL

The church was originally dedicated to Saint Nicholas. Excavations have shown that there was a church before this church, probably more than one, because in addition to monastery bricks, a tufa stone called âlde Friezen was also found in the churchyard. These stones were used in church construction around 1100. There was a fire in the church in January 1970. An overheated stove in the middle of the church caused the roof to catch fire. This resulted in a large hole in the roof. The damage was then repaired using panelling and carpeting. This disrupted the acoustics in the church. During the extensive renovation of 2006/2007, some things were restored. The church is used by the Protestant Community of Tjerkgaast, Idskenhuizen and Sint Nicolaasga.

Protestantse Kerk

Krimpen aan de Lek, NL

Built to replace the predecessor of this church, which was demolished in 1939. There is a whale on the tower of the church. This whale is a reminder of whaling, which was an important source of income for the village in earlier centuries. The bell from 1388 - elsewhere incorrectly mentioned as originating from Krimpen aan den IJssel - was damaged in 1940 and could no longer ring. The municipal authorities wanted to melt down the bell, but historians put a stop to that. The bell ended up in the Gouda museum, the Catharina Gasthuis. It has since been decided that the bell will return to Krimpen. The current bell was made in 1962 by Van Bergen in Heiligerlee.
