Oude Jeroenskerk, Medieval church in Noordwijk, Netherlands

The church features a prominent tower with walls two meters thick and 110 steps leading to an observation platform at the top.

The church tower dates from the 13th century, while the current main building replaced a smaller structure in 1303 due to increased pilgrim visits.

The building holds the status of Rijksmonument, containing a 15th-century baptismal font and ancient sarcophagus among its religious artifacts.

Located at Voorstraat 44 in Noordwijk, visitors can climb the tower stairs for views across the surrounding landscape and North Sea coast.

The church axis was specifically constructed to align with the setting sun on Saint Jeroen's memorial day, though the choir section required adjustment.
