Bosjöklosters kyrka

Höör, SE

Bosjökloster Church was built in the Romanesque style in sandstone around 1175 as a monastery church for a Benedictine convent and was dedicated to the Virgin Mary and St. Nicholas. A bell tower was added later but was demolished in the 17th century. The present vault of the nave was built in the 15th century. The nave was originally ten metres high and then lowered to about six metres. A major reconstruction was carried out in the 1850s under the direction of Carl Georg Brunius when the present bell tower was added.

Boskapel

Staverden, NL

The small church is prominently located on the corner of the Garderenseweg, the Staverdenseweg and the Jhr. Dr. CJ Sandbergweg. It was founded in 1875, as a replacement for a wooden church building from 1866, by Jan Rudolf Kemper for the residents of Staverden, Leuvenum and Speuld. In 1931 the church was renovated and the consistory room was added, designed by the architectural firm BRINKMAN and Van der VLUGT, who probably also took care of the new interior of the church building (pew plan, pulpit, tiled floor, wainscoting and lamps).

Boskerk

Oudemirdum, NL

Church building with 280 seats. The congregation of Oudemirdum was founded because members of the local Dutch Reformed Church no longer felt at home there. After attending church in the Reformed Congregation of Lemmer for some time, the church building with 200 seats was put into use on 15 August 1933. After using a pedal organ for the first few years, the congregation started using an organ by Mr Wattel in Utrecht in 1951. In 1975, a community centre was built next to the church. In 1969, the number of seats was expanded. In 1986, the organ was replaced by an organ by the firm Fama & Raadgever in Utrecht.
