Donatuskerk, Medieval church in Leermens, Netherlands

The church features a combination of tuff stone and red monastery bricks, with Romanesque round-arched windows adorning its side walls.

Construction of Donatuskerk began in 1050, making it one of the oldest religious structures in the northern region of the Netherlands.

The interior walls display fifteenth-century paintings of Saint Sebastian, Virgin Mary with child, and Saint Ursula in traditional medieval style.

Visitors can access the church through the official website kerkleermens.nl, which provides information about current events and opening hours.

A hidden hatch under the seventeenth-century pulpit leads to a cellar that provided shelter for people during World War II.
