The Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk (German Church of Our Lady; also called Grote Kerk) is a late Gothic former parish and collegiate church in Veere (Zeeland province) in the Netherlands. The monumental building, which was never completed, is now used as a cultural church. The older small kerk, which was prepared for church services in 1699, adjoins the walled-up transept

The Grote Kerk is a large house with a rich history. The church, built in the 14th century, was used by various religions and institutions throughout the centuries. In the 16th century, construction work was halted. In fact, the church was too large for the small Veere. From then on, the church was used as a multifunctional building. The church has a strategic location because it offers a wide view of the sea and land. During the French occupation, Veere was heavily bombarded by the English fleet. Fortunately, the church remained undamaged. During this period, the upper floors were used by the French army as a hospital. Horses were stabled on the ground floor.
After 1815, under the new Dutch regime, the church was used for many years as a military function. From 1839, it became a hospital again, then a shelter, etc.
Today, it is an empty church and is used as an exhibition space. In clear weather, a climb to the top is recommended. Once you reach the top you have a beautiful view of the polders, the charming town with its harbour, the fortress of Veere, the Veerse Meer and the sea.
