Church of Zweeloo, Medieval church in Zweeloo, Netherlands.

The Church of Zweeloo features a rectangular single-nave structure with a roof turret covered in oak shingles on the front facade.

Built in 1252, the church contains a 13th-century clock and includes interior elements such as a pulpit constructed in 1702 with a double copper candle holder.

Vincent van Gogh visited this church in November 1883, creating sketches of the building and its surroundings during his day trip from Veenoord.

The church maintains its role as an active place of worship while welcoming visitors interested in exploring its architectural and historical elements.

Archaeological discoveries near the church include an early medieval cemetery with the grave of a noblewoman, known as the Princess of Zweeloo.
