Hiking

The Laurenskerk used to be located on the river Rotte, which was the cradle of Rotterdam. The imposing church was built between approximately 1449 and 1525 and is the only remaining late Gothic building from the originally medieval Rotterdam. The images of the badly damaged church in the Second World War and its reconstruction afterwards became symbols of the fate of the city and its residents.

The Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk, often simply called Laurenskerk, is a Gothic church building in Rotterdam. It is the only remnant of the medieval city centre of Rotterdam. The current church is a cross between a hall church and a cruciform basilica.

Too bad I needed the excuse of a record fair to walk in here again. The Laurenskerk is always more than worth a visit. Still, the tower should be climbed again!
