The R.K. St. Ursula and Gezellinnenkerk in Warmenhuizen

betekenis & definitie

(Dorpsstraat 177) is a three-aisled church with an enclosed closed choir and a tower of three sections with frontals and eight-sided striker. This neo-Romanesque church arose in 1872-'73 after design by Th. Asseler and replaced a church from 1839.

Striking are the rose windows at the light aisle and the window triplets at the aisles. The nave is covered by a wooden barrel vault, the side aisles by stuccoed wooden cross rib vaults. The interior has further squeezed round pillars with leaf capitals and a triforium with linked arches on sub-columns. The organ is by L. Ypma (1886). The large parsonage (Dorpsstraat 179; 1883, J. van Groenendael) is performed with decorative masonry.
