Stefanuskerk
The 11th-century St Stephen's Church has a history of many alterations, is surrounded by the legend of the 'missile towers' and possesses unusual sarcophagus covers from the 12th century.
Take a closer look
St Stephen's Church is one of the few churches where the late Gothic rood screen from 1560 remains intact. Another special feature is a 12th-century sarcophagus lid depicting two people. Originally dating from the 11th century, the church has been modified several times over time, both on the outside and inside. Except for the crossing, all vaults in the nave were replaced by a wooden ceiling. The existing vault and wall paintings were repainted after the Reformation. Only a few fragments such as Mary, and St Stephen and St Sebastian are still visible. The dormer replaced a 70-metre tower, presumably 14th century, which was demolished in 1854.
