Reformed Church of Zuiderwoude
Contact
The church of Zuiderwoude is a national monument and was recently restored in 2 phases. The church was built in 1877. The showpiece is the beautiful 17th-century pulpit from the previous church building.
Since 2007, the church has owned a monumental organ from 1863. During the summer months, the church is open for visits.
History
The church is central to the village. A chapel is said to have stood on the site of the current church as early as the 11th century, which was lost in an attack by Spanish troops in 1573. A new church was built in 1624, but was largely destroyed by fire in 1714. It was not until 1877 that another church was built. That building still stands today; it was renovated in 2004.
Services
Celebrations are on Sundays at 10am.
