Oude Toren, Gothic tower in Woensel, Netherlands

The Oude Toren stands 43 meters tall with corner buttresses on the west side and a stair tower on the south side of the structure.

Built in the 15th century as part of St. Petrus Church, the tower underwent significant changes after a storm in 1800 reduced its height from 63 meters.

The tower remains an active place of worship while serving as a central element of the municipal cemetery, preserving local religious traditions.

The tower and surrounding cemetery grounds maintain regular opening hours, with administration services available on weekdays from 8:30 to 16:00.

The oak bell tower from 1650 continues to function within the structure, marking centuries of continuous use in the Eindhoven community.
