Workum - St Geertruidskerk

The Grote Kerk (St Geertruidskerk) is the largest medieval cruciform basilica in Friesland, with a free-standing tower. Construction of the church began in 1550 with the choir. The main features in the interior are the choir screen (16th C.), the organ (17th C.) and the carved wooden pulpit (18th C.). Of particular interest, too, are the richly painted biers of the various guilds in the aisles.
