Kerkje van Oostum, Medieval church in Garnwerd, Netherlands.

The church features a narrow western bay and a cross-standing tower topped with a distinctive saddle roof from the 16th century.

The bell, cast by Henrik Kokenbacker and purchased from Feerwerd Church for 100 Caroline guilders, displays rich decorations of seven apostles.

The roof tiles form specific patterns including a Greek cross and possible Christogram, representing traditional Dutch religious architectural elements.

The church maintains regular opening hours and functions as a venue for local community events and religious gatherings throughout the year.

Different colored roof tiles, arranged in specific patterns on the church, create visible religious symbols when viewed from above.
