Martinikerk, Gothic church in Doesburg, Netherlands.

The Martinikerk features intricate Gothic architectural elements throughout its structure, with a central nave rising above the side aisles in Nederrijn style.

The church underwent multiple transformations since 1235, including a complete reconstruction in 1532 after destruction by lightning strikes in 1487.

The Martinikerk serves the Protestant community of Angerlo-Doesburg while maintaining its position as a center for concerts, lectures, and community gatherings.

The building includes modern facilities with kitchen units, restrooms, a shop, and a cloakroom integrated discreetly within the side aisles.

In 1783, the Martinikerk became the first building in the Netherlands to receive a lightning rod installation after multiple damaging strikes.
