Grote of Sint-Bonifaciuskerk, Medemblik

The Grote of Sint-Bonifaciuskerk is a Protestant church in Medemblik with three aisles and notable interior features including painted columns from the early 1600s and colored glass windows. These windows show contributions made by different local craft guilds over the centuries.

The building was constructed in 1404 following a fire that destroyed its predecessor, and later received status as a national monument due to its architectural value. This recognition shows how important it remains to local heritage preservation efforts.

The church serves as a spiritual center where local residents mark important moments in their lives through worship and community gatherings. Its role in neighborhood life remains visible through regular services and events that bring people together throughout the year.

The church welcomes visitors during regular worship services and also hosts community events and cultural activities throughout the year. Those interested in viewing the interior should check opening times or plan to attend a service.

The bell tower rises prominently above the town and houses bells cast in the 17th century, one of which is particularly large and resonant. These bells ring on special occasions and have been part of the local soundscape for many generations.
