Heilige Nicolaas

Schalkhaar, NL

Three-aisled neo-Gothic pseudo-basilica with front tower, designed by G. te Riele. Stylistically influenced by the late Lower Rhine Gothic and by the work of A. Tepe. In 1933 drastically changed and expanded with a new transept and choir by J. Haket. On the choir tribune provided with letter panels a single-manual organ from 1900, made by Ludwig Schwarze (1858-1925) from Anholt. In the period January to June 2005 the church (1895, G. te Riele) was restored. The chancel in particular has been changed and is now much more functionally furnished. This means that the church can be given a multifunctional purpose, such as a concert hall. (54-05)
