Historische Kirchen in der Veluwe

Historic Churches of the Veluwe

The Veluwe's religious landscape features a diverse collection of historic architecture, ranging from the 10th-century Oude Kerk in Oosterbeek to the mid-20th-century Christuskoepel on the Mariëndaal Estate. This list highlights significant Protestant village churches, such as the Romanesque Oude Jan in Velp and the 18th-century church of Rozendaal, alongside notable Roman Catholic sites like the Neo-Gothic Bernulphuskerk. Many of these landmarks, including the relocated 's-Heerenhoek church at the Open Air Museum, serve as protected national monuments reflecting centuries of Gelderland's spiritual history.
