Hervormde Kerk

Oldemarkt, NL

In 1448 a chapel was built on this site. In 1850 it was expanded with a side aisle on the south side. This side aisle was demolished again in 1970-1973, during the restoration. As a result, the church regained its original form. For the construction of the chapel at that time, a certain Jacob Muerling, who had many possessions in Oldemarkt, made a considerable effort by donating lands to the church. The parish church was at that time in Paaslo. In 1489, the parish church was transferred to Oldemarkt. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

Hervormde Kerk

Randwijk, NL

Reformed church. Of the medieval church, only the late Gothic, single-nave, three-sided closed choir remains. The west side of the nave was irreparably damaged when the tower was blown up in 1944-1945. Under the leadership of ir WJG van Mourik, the choir was restored and a completely new nave was built, more or less in keeping with the style of the choir. Against the west side, a large square tower with a pointed roof and bell spire. The work was completed in 1953, during which the nave, which had been badly damaged in 1944, was subsequently rebuilt in quasi-Gothic forms.

Haaften, NL

Very interesting early neo-Gothic village church with tower. The interior of the church has been largely restored to its original state. The pulpit dating from 1834 is striking. (59-08)
