Klein Wetsinge Church
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.
About this building
The clock is from a church in Sauwerd and dates from 1609. The pulpit from the old church was transferred to the new church.
The early medieval church on the wierde van Sauwerd was demolished together with the church of Groot Wetsinge in 1840. The current church had to replace these churches. After the radical restoration and renovation of 2014-2015, the building is now considered one of the Special Locations of Groningen.
The Tourist Information Point Waddenland is found on the first floor, and visitors are warmly welcomed by the management couple Nicolaas and Inez Geenen. The church is open daily.
