Ontmoetingskerk

In the church under the organ gallery hangs the certificate of the union of the Reformed Church and the Reformed Church, September 17, 1997, when the Samen op Weg community Via Pacis - the way of peace - in Beetsterzwaag was called Olterterp. Now the Protestant community Via Pacis. This church is still regularly used for evening services and special services. The community holds the morning services in De Ontmoetingskerk (the former Reformed Church).

The church was built around 1500, and probably enlarged later. The tower dates from 1744 and was built thanks to a contribution from Ayzo van Boelens and his first wife Rinske Lycklama a Nijeholt. A memorial stone above the entrance is the tangible proof of this.

The church of Kortehemmen probably dates from the thirteenth century. The church has a sober character, both inside and out. The pulpit is from the Renaissance. Next to the church is a belfry from the eighteenth century.
