The church building was built at the beginning of the thirteenth century. Originally it was a Romanesque-Gothic cruciform church. But in 1600 the transepts were demolished. From that time on it is no longer a cruciform church. In the same period the church building was lowered 5.5 meters and a choir section was added to the church. In 1970 the church was thoroughly restored. The pews were removed from the choir. In the choir section you can find gravestones and a burial vault. The foundation stone for the tower, which is separate from the church, was laid on June 16, 1820 and was completed 2 years later. The tower is built on 96 piles. On the spire is not a rooster, but a horse.
Beilen, NL
The Stefanuskerk is a Gothic church building of the Protestant community in Beilen. The church was founded before 1139 as a Roman Catholic church and dedicated to the martyr Stephen. The current church building dates from the 14th, 15th or 16th century. Karstkarel dates the construction of the nave, tower and choir around 1500. According to Stenvert [et al.] the church would have been built earlier, namely at the end of the 14th century and the choir at the beginning of the 15th century. The Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands speaks of a building from the 16th century with a tower from the 15th century. At the time it was the most important church of the dingspel Middenveld and the building also served as an ecclesiastical court.
