A church without a village, thanks to the advancing industrial area of nearby Delfzijl. The oldest part of the church dates from about 1200.

This three-sided closed 19th century hall church replaced its medieval predecessor. The top of the 15th century tower fell in 1815 and was replaced. Inside we see a printed wooden barrel vault and some beautiful tombstones, including one form 1498 with a copper shield.

According to the brickwork, this beautiful church was built in 1840. The shape is neo-classical and of a sobriety that fits the landscape. The large wooden zinc roofed roof turret, which crowns the building, does not have the simplicity that characterizes the red brick base.

A compact late-Roman hall church, in which the dome vaults with brick imitation stand out. The Gothic tower is 15th century. The church was originally dedicated to Mary. The construction of the church is connected with the Steenhuizerborg that stood at Krewerd.

The cemetery at the top of the church is the highest part of the Leegeweg (low road). The church building was restored in the late-1900s, especially the nave from the 13th century.

A thirteenth century church built on a foundation of large field boulders. The five-sided closed choir replaced a previous straight chorus closure. The interior is simple, although the beam soldering has a special blue-green colour scheme.

The small hall church probably dates from the 13th century, but was thoroughly renovated in 1775. A large memorial stone reminds us of this above the entrance of the tower. The stained glass windows were placed in 1937.

The Belgian beer café Olivier is a singular space housed in the former Maria Minor Church in Utrecht.

One of the oldest Romanesque churches in the north, dedicated to the holy Mauritius. The saddle roof tower has a floor facing the vessel. On the semi-circular apse are so-called nuns and monks (semicircular roof tiles, hollow and convex).

The church is one of the oldest brickwork buildings in the province and has retained its Romanesque shape for almost 800 years. Two large buttresses were installed in the 18th century to prevent subsidence of the walls.
