Bethelkerk

The Bethelkerk features a symmetrical facade divided into three sections with iron pointed windows, gray stone accents, and a gabled roof covered in black tiles.

Built in 1885 to replace an 1851 structure, the church incorporates an annex from 1867 that now serves as a consistory room and meeting space.

The interior maintains traditional Reformed design elements with wooden galleries supported by cast iron columns and features intricate carved corbels connecting to half-columns.

The church contains 1052 seats and underwent renovations in 1981 to improve thermal insulation, replace window frames, and update sanitary facilities.

A model fishing boat hangs from the ceiling tie rods, reflecting the maritime heritage of the Urk community.
