The “Nieuwe Kerk” (New Church) in Zierikzee is another prominent church located in the same town of Zierikzee on the island of Schouwen-Duiveland in the province of Zeeland, Netherlands. It is situated not far from the “Sint-Lievensmonstertoren,” or “De Dikke Toren”.

The Nieuwe Kerk dates back to the 15th century and was constructed during the late Gothic period. It was built as a replacement for an older church that had become too small for the growing population.

The Nieuwe Kerk features classic Gothic architectural elements, including pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and intricate stone carvings. Its design reflects the architectural style of the time and the influence of the era’s religious beliefs.

The Nieuwe Kerk continues to be a place of worship and is also used for cultural events, concerts, and exhibitions.

Both the Nieuwe Kerk and the Sint-Lievensmonstertoren (De Dikke Toren) contribute to the cultural and historical richness of Zierikzee, offering insights into the town’s past and its role in the broader context of Dutch history and architecture.
