Description

Since their Gothic church was stripped down by the Calvinists, the Beguines were forced to pray at Begijnhof. Established about 1392, the Engelse Kerk still serves as the Presbyterian church of the area. In the world, the oldest preserved wooden house is No. 34, dated from about 1425, making it the oldest preserved house in the country.
