Oude Blasiuskerk, Gothic church in Delden, Netherlands.

Oude Blasiuskerk is a three-aisled church built from sandstone with medieval columns located in Delden. The tower dates to 1516 and remains unfinished, creating its distinctive silhouette.

The church was first documented in 1118 and underwent several construction phases changing from Romanesque to Gothic style. These transformations reflect the shifting architectural tastes across centuries.

The interior displays 15th-century frescoes showing the Last Judgment and memorial stones of former residents, telling stories of people who shaped local life. These artworks reflect how the community honored those who came before.

The church is open from Tuesday to Saturday between 14:00 and 16:00, with guides available during summer months. Check ahead about guide availability to enhance your visit and learn about the architectural details.

The tower's upper levels lack bell openings, revealing the construction was interrupted and never resumed. A decorative iron fence with pointed tips once protected the cemetery ground from animals.
