Hervormde Kerk

Oldemarkt, NL

In 1448 a chapel was built on this site. In 1850 it was expanded with a side aisle on the south side. This side aisle was demolished again in 1970-1973, during the restoration. As a result, the church regained its original form. For the construction of the chapel at that time, a certain Jacob Muerling, who had many possessions in Oldemarkt, made a considerable effort by donating lands to the church. The parish church was at that time in Paaslo. In 1489, the parish church was transferred to Oldemarkt. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.
