Protestantse Kerk

Serooskerke, NL

In 1575, the previous church was largely destroyed by fire. The nave of this church was rebuilt in its original state. The ruins of the choir were never restored. The church was severely damaged by salt water during the flood disaster of 1953. After the disaster, the church was thoroughly restored. The tower was straightened. On 17 July 1958, a new organ was put into use. Because the salt water had penetrated deep into the walls, the plaster layer of the walls regularly came loose. The inside of the walls was thoroughly restored in 1997. A new layer of plaster was applied, which means that the problem of the walls coming loose will probably be a thing of the past. The church is called Sint-Alardskerk.
