The churches in Oost-Vlieland are historic Protestant and Catholic places of worship on the Wadden island of Vlieland. The 17th-century Dutch Reformed church stands on Dorpsstraat, while the Roman Catholic St. Nicholas church dates from 1840. Both buildings are open for visitors during summer months and host regular services.
What to expect
- Visit the 1647 Dutch Reformed church, with its wooden barrel vault and 18th-century pulpit.
- See the 1840 Catholic church, a simple neoclassical hall with a small tower and stained-glass windows.
- Attend a Sunday service (Protestant at 10:00, Catholic at 11:00) to hear the organ music.
- Walk through the surrounding churchyard, which holds graves of island captains and sailors.
- Entry is free, but donations are welcome; guided tours are available on request for groups of 10 or more.
- Suitable for history enthusiasts and those interested in island heritage; allow 30-45 minutes per church.
