Oude Kerk

Oude Kerk is a Gothic hall church with a square tower topped by a carillon of 49 bells installed in 1963. The building accommodates up to 1,100 people and serves both religious services and musical performances.

The earliest records of this church date to the 12th century, with a significant fire occurring in 1421 during conflict between Utrecht and Gelderlanders. The building has undergone various modifications and repairs over the centuries.

The church serves as a central meeting place for the local Protestant community and hosts both religious services and musical performances. It remains an important part of daily community life in the town.

The church is located at Torenplein 1 in the town center and is easy to find. Visitors can attend services or visit during concerts that are regularly held throughout the year.

The Paradijsorgel organ, built in 1765, is a remarkable musical instrument that has undergone several restorations. Major renovation work was completed in the 1950s and again in the 1980s to preserve its sound.
