Hervormde kerk, Hegebeintum, Romanesque church on artificial hill in Hegebeintum, Netherlands.
The church displays tuff stone construction with a single nave, three-tiered gabled tower, and pointed arch windows added during renovations.
Built in the early 12th century, the church underwent extensions around 1200 and received substantial modifications to its apse during the 16th century.
The interior reveals 12th-century Romanesque wall paintings depicting Christ and angels, along with gravestones of prominent local families.
The church maintains regular visiting hours and houses a Van Dam organ from 1862, restored in 2003 by Bakker & Timmenga craftsmen.
Standing on the highest terp in the Netherlands at 8.80 meters, the church contains sixteen mourning boards commemorating Harsta State inhabitants.
