Historic Religious Sites

Overijssel’s religious landscape is defined by its medieval origins and architectural diversity. This collection spans from the 11th-century Romanesque foundations of Oldenzaal's St. Plechelmus Basilica to the soaring Gothic vaults of Zwolle’s St. Michael’s. Notable highlights include the Broerenkerk, a 15th-century Dominican church now serving as a bookstore, and the 19th-century eclectic Synagogue of Zwolle. These sites showcase centuries of ecclesiastical history, featuring historic organs, ornate stained glass, and the region's prominent 'Great Churches' that dominate historic city skylines.
