The Grote Kerk was closed for worship in 1968 and sold to be converted into a building with a commercial function. The church was bought in 1984 to be converted into shop(s) and apartments. Thirty-six residential apartments have been realized in the building, 18 of which are located between the wooden barrel vault and the roof. The tower is owned by the civil municipality. Remembrance Day takes place at the church every year.

The Grote Kerk is a church in Hoorn, West Friesland, in the Dutch province of North Holland. It is located on the Kerkplein, which runs around the church and, along with the Roman Catholic Church of St. Cyriacus and St. Francis (popularly known as the Koepelkerk), is a defining feature of Hoorn's cityscape. The tower is 60 meters high.
