Pilgrim Fathers Church, Gothic church in Delfshaven, Netherlands.

The Pilgrim Fathers Church features an octagonal wooden tower, white plastered arches separating the nave, and stained glass windows depicting the Creation story.

Built in 1417 as Saint Anthony's Chapel, the church underwent major modifications in 1761, when its height increased by 3.6 meters with a bell-shaped gable.

The church holds a 44-bell carillon and displays commemorative panels listing the names of Protestant vicars who served since 1574.

Located at Aelbrechtskolk 20 in Rotterdam, the church hosts religious services, concerts, lectures, weddings, and exhibitions throughout the year.

The original bell from 1464, cast by J.W. Hoerken, now rests inside the church after developing a crack during its centuries of service.
