Nederlands Hervormde Kerk, Maasland, Medieval church building in Maasland, Netherlands
The Nederlands Hervormde Kerk is a medieval church building in Maasland situated beside the Gaag River in the village center. Its tower, constructed in the early 1400s, remains a striking feature of the local landscape and community space.
The original church stood closer to the Maas River and was destroyed by floods in 1163. Count Floris III ordered a new church to be built at this higher location in 1164.
The church has served as a gathering place for the local community and shaped how people lived together over the centuries. Its simple, unadorned interior reflects the style typical of Reformed churches in this region.
Visitors will find this location easily accessible in the village center and can walk around it freely to view the structure from different angles. The surrounding area beside the river offers a pleasant setting for a brief visit or rest.
During World War II, the building suffered severe fire damage in mid 1945 that left only the walls standing and destroyed the roof. Later restoration work preserved the medieval structure while adding modern spaces for community use.
