Petruskerk, Leens, Medieval church in Leens, Netherlands.

The Petruskerk stands on the highest point of an artificial mound, constructed with tuff stone and featuring Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements.

The church was established in the early 12th century, with the transept and choir dating from the beginning of the 13th century.

The interior contains a 1734 Hinsz organ with 27 registers, two manuals, and wooden carvings by Theodorus van der Haven and Casper Struiwig.

The church hosts weekly organ concerts during summer months and maintains both the main Hinsz organ and a smaller choir organ from 1983.

The Van Starkenborgh family coat of arms decorates the covered noble bench in the north aisle of the church.
