Sint-Martinuskerk, Baak, Neo-Gothic church building in Baak, Netherlands
Sint-Martinuskerk in Baak is a Neo-Gothic church with a three-aisled pseudo-basilica structure and diagonally positioned chapels at the corners. The building combines typical features of this architectural style with strong arches and elaborately designed interior spaces.
The church was completed in 1892 following designs by Wilhelm Victor Alfred Tepe, who created numerous church buildings across the Utrecht archdiocese. This project reflected the strong church construction activity of the late 1800s in the region.
The name Sint-Martinuskerk reflects the tradition of saint veneration central to this Catholic community. The ornate interior design with its columns and altars shows the craftsmanship that has inspired worshippers across generations.
The building sits in Baak within Bronckhorst municipality in Gelderland province and enjoys protection as a Rijksmonument. Access is usually available during opening hours for viewings or religious services.
The interior holds an organ from 1788 that was originally built for Amsterdam's De Liefde church and later adapted for this location. This instrument connects organ-building traditions from earlier centuries with the church's Neo-Gothic design.
