Heilige Barbara

Built as a Baptist church. Replaced a small church from 1918 that was destroyed during the war.

Possibly in 1527, a Catholic church building was founded dedicated to Saint Barbara, who was, among other things, the patron saint of the polder workers. This church became a reformed church during the Eighty Years' War , when Breskens became Protestant. In fact, only the choir section remained, which was provided with a bell tower on the roof, so that the whole looked like a small church. This church was demolished in 1924 and replaced by a new church, doubling the number of seats. This church had a 30-metre-high tower and consisted of a skeleton of reinforced concrete that was covered with bricks. The church was built in a late neo-Gothic style. This church was destroyed by war actions during the Battle of the Scheldt at the end of 1944 .

NH Church. Three-aisled hall church with a three-sided closed choir, a north choir and a tower with an octagonal superstructure and a spire. The oldest parts of the church date back to the 13th century; the tower with perpendicular buttresses dates from the 14th century. The nave and the north aisle were built in the second half of the 15th century. The south aisle served as a Walloon Church from 1618 to 1808 and was separated from the rest of the church around 1685. During a major renovation in 1868, the church was completely plastered on the outside and the windows were given new traceries. After a lightning strike, the tower was restored and deplastered in 1950. The interior is covered by a flat stucco ceiling from 1868. An important part of the interior is the pulpit with surrounding baptismal garden in Louis XVI style: donated in 1794 by descendants of Jacob Cats. The single manual organ was built in 1903 by JF Kruse (Leeuwarden).
