Replaced older church, 1772 tower renewed. On January 1, 2002, the Protestant churches in our region joined forces and the Samen-Op-Weg community De Slachsang was formed (now Protestant Regional Community De Slachsang). The regional community is a merger of the Protestant community De Slachsang in Lytsewierrum, which also includes Rien and part of Reahûs, the Protestant community De Slachsang in Britswert-Wiuwert-Easterwierrum and the Protestant community De Slachsang in Boazum.
Reformed Church on enclosed churchyard. In the church 17th century pulpit with cornice panels and two 19th century text boards. Organ made in 1876 by W. Hardorff. In the roof turret a bell by Stephanus, 1312, diam. 95 cm. Mechanical tower clock S. Rodenburg, Sneek, first quarter 20th century
The building is housed in a foundation Freonen fan de Boazumertsjerke. The goal of the Foundation Freonen fan de Boazumertsjerke is to contribute to the preservation of the St. Martenstsjerke in the village of Boazum in the best possible condition. If a small church community can no longer afford the costs, outside help is needed.
Simple neo-Gothic village church with tower. Characteristic work in the extensive oeuvre of Alfred Tepe (1840-1920). The Sint Martinuskerk was built in 1892. The church has 12 pillars, which symbolize the 12 apostles, 'the pillars of the church'. The 14 painted Stations of the Cross are from 1852 (O. de Boer). The stained glass windows show images of Christ's Birth, The Last Supper and the Eight Beatitudes.
