De Rank

Built as a Reformed Church. In 1945 it became a Reformed Church (Liberated).

The hall church, with its eclectic façade and neoclassical elements, was built in 1862 as the successor of a medieval church.

Important historical church with saddle roof tower. Originally dedicated to St. Liudger (= St. Ludgerus). Liudgerkerk, circa 1200. The original building consisted of a tuff stone nave with a semi-circular apse: the tuff and brick saddle roof tower will be somewhat younger. In the 13th century, a brick extension was placed against the south side of the nave. In the 17th century, the semi-circular apse was replaced by a three-sided choir. In the 1960s, round arch windows were added during a restoration to emphasise the Romanesque character of the church. The church contains a Van Oeckelen organ from 1894.
