Nederland - kerk van Sint Anna ter Muiden
The church of Sint Anna ter Muiden has a long and checkered history. The massive tower - dating back to the 14th century - is the only building still showing the former glory of the city. It is the only (Flemish polder) tower built in the style of the Scheldt Gothic in the Netherlands. The church tower was also used as a lighthouse when the town had an important harbour in the 14th century.
The church was probably originally a cruciform church. The building was partially destroyed by English soldiers. After the Eighty Years War the church was completely destructed and the tower is the only remnant of the originally church.
In 1653 the current Dutch Reformed church was built on the south side against the stubby tower. The church was dedicated to the grandmother of Jesus, St. Anna. Mude - as the city was called - was in the Middle Ages even a place of pilgrimage to the Holy Anna.
