De Drieklank (Reformed Church of Zweeloo)

The church dates from the second half of the 15th century and was originally connected to the tower. At that time, the building had the tower, a low nave and a high choir. Around 1592, part of the nave was destroyed (siege of Coevorden). The remaining part of the nave was brought to the same height as the choir in 1628 and the west facade was then bricked up. Since then, the church and tower have been separated.

Of the Gothic church, only the ruined eastern part and the freestanding tower (ca. 1450 - 1500) remain. The nave is said to have collapsed during the Eighty Years' War - or was the church never finished due to lack of money? When the church was plastered in 1862, the furniture, including two 17th century pews, remained reasonably intact.

This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

The GKV was built in 1945. An extension followed in 1981 and in 1998 the church got a new extension. The church is big enough for its own 180 members, but especially for the holidaymakers the church is much too small in the summer months. In 2007 the church was expanded considerably. After that expansion the church also got a name: De Akker. The church was officially put back into use on 31 May 2008. (56-06/59-08/60-08/61-09) Built as Reformed Church (Liberated), after merger in 2023 Dutch Reformed Church.

Modern church with small tower. Built to replace an earlier Reformed church. The official name of this church is now Ontmoetingskerk. This name change probably took place in 2013, when the Dutch Reformed and Reformed Church in Sleen together became the Protestant Community of Sleen.
