Grote Kerk, Gothic church building in Gorinchem, Netherlands.
The Grote Kerk features a 60-meter Gothic tower with glazed stone patterns and an octagonal stair-turret in its north-eastern section.
The tower construction occurred between 1517 and 1570, while the current church structure replaced the original building in 1851 with neo-Classical elements.
The church maintains a regular schedule of religious ceremonies and music performances, supporting the local community through various gatherings and celebrations.
The church accommodates 1100 people and provides access to visitors interested in examining its architectural features, including wooden vaults and cast iron window frames.
The tower began leaning during its early construction phase, resulting in a visible tilt that contrasts with the later portions built in alignment.
