Grote Kerk, Gothic church in Leerdam, Netherlands
The Grote Kerk features a three-nave structure with a pentagonal choir, a 15th-century transept, and a built-in Romanesque tower from the 13th century.
The church underwent significant modifications between 1862 and 1863, followed by a restoration from 1957 to 1960 that returned it to its pre-1862 configuration.
The church displays a Ten Commandments board from 1696 with the coat of arms of Willem III, who held the title of Count of Leerdam.
The church maintains its religious function as part of the Dutch Reformed Church congregation and stands at Kerkstraat 32 in central Leerdam.
During excavations in 1994, workers discovered the foundation of an ancient baptistry, which remains visible on the western side of the church.
