Mariakerk, Medieval church in Wierum, Netherlands
The Mariakerk stands near the seawall with a tuffstone tower, featuring vaulted side spaces on both ground level and upper floor.
Built around 1200, the church underwent major reconstruction in 1912, preserving only the saddle-roof tower and western section of its original structure.
The weather vane atop the church tower depicts an aak fishing vessel, representing the maritime heritage of this coastal community.
The church maintains its original round-arched passages and vaults, with a wooden ceiling supported by tension rods in the main hall.
Due to flooding that erased the northeastern part of Wierum, the church now sits at the base of the seawall instead of the village center.
