Oostkerk, Middelburg, Neoclassical church building in Middelburg, Netherlands
The Oostkerk features an octagonal dome supported by Ionic columns, with decorative festoons and pilasters adorning its exterior architecture at Oostkerkplein.
Construction of this Protestant church began in 1647 and concluded in 1667, responding to increased demand for worship spaces during the Dutch East India Company period.
The interior preserves family shields and an 18th-century organ built by Gebr. de Rijckere, displaying the religious and musical heritage of Zeeland.
Since 2017, the building functions as a cultural center under the National Monument Foundation, hosting concerts and community events throughout the year.
Two stone obelisks mark the entrance steps, while the portal showcases an eagle holding decorations above Corinthian columns and biblical texts on cartouches.
