Protestantse Gemeente te Oss, Paaskerk

Protestantse Gemeente te Oss, Paaskerk

Oss, NL

On April 2, 1966, the church building was inaugurated as a new Reformed Church. The church replaced the older church in the centre of Oss, which was demolished after the move. Around 1978 the old church of the Reformed congregation on the Burgemeester Van den Elzenlaan in Oss had become too small and people started using the building of the Reformed congregation. A few years later, in 1980, a second church building was built behind the existing Reformed church building for the Reformed congregation. A few years later, only joint church services were held. In 1989 the Reformed Church and the Reformed Church federated. In addition, the church building was given the name Paaskerk and the annex has since been called Pentecost mound. In the years that followed, a new entrance and entrance hall were built that connected the two buildings. The non-oriented church building is a modern church in the style of post-war modernism. It has an eight-sided ground plan from which a quarter has been cut. In the centre is a tower of metal columns with a belfry. Inside, the building consists of two rooms next to the entrance, with the second room being used for smaller services.

Protestantse Kerk

Nijega, NL

The Dutch Reformed Church of Nijega is originally a medieval hall church, dedicated to St. Agatha. After a major renovation in 1893 by municipal architect DD Duursma, the church was given its current appearance. The bell tower was also built in that year. The two bells in it came from the belfry, which stood in the churchyard. The year 1381 is mentioned on the oldest preserved bell. A bell from 1793 was removed by the Germans during WWII and replaced in 1957. The entrance gates decorated with cast iron death symbols also date from 1893.

Protestantse Kerk

Krimpen aan de Lek, NL

Built to replace the predecessor of this church, which was demolished in 1939. There is a whale on the tower of the church. This whale is a reminder of whaling, which was an important source of income for the village in earlier centuries. The bell from 1388 - elsewhere incorrectly mentioned as originating from Krimpen aan den IJssel - was damaged in 1940 and could no longer ring. The municipal authorities wanted to melt down the bell, but historians put a stop to that. The bell ended up in the Gouda museum, the Catharina Gasthuis. It has since been decided that the bell will return to Krimpen. The current bell was made in 1962 by Van Bergen in Heiligerlee.

Protestantse Kerk

Hoek, NL

The tower dates from 1900. In the church there is a pulpit from 1760, originating from the old church. On 1 January 2015 a large fire raged in this church. After this fire, in consultation with the RCE, among others, the church was "rebuilt". This reconstruction actually involved an almost completely new construction .
