Pilsum Cross Church

The Pilsum Cross Church features a square crossing tower dominating both the structure and the village, making it visible from land and sea points.

The church construction occurred in three phases during the 13th century, with the nave built around 1240 and the transept and choir added later.

Following Calvin's teachings since the Reformation, the Protestant Reformed church conducts services without crosses or altars, focusing on Bible readings and psalm singing.

From Holy Week until Reformation Day, visitors can explore the church daily between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM or join guided tours on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The medieval structure contains a bronze baptismal font from 1470 and an organ from 1694 by Aurich builder Grotian, comprising 16 stops and 925 pipes.
