Nederland - Het Stift, Stiftskerk
Het Stift - a unique place in Twente - is an age-old protected townscape nearby Weerselo. It is over 800 years since a community was founded here by ‘Hugo van Buren’. The commune was transformed into a Benedictine double monastery that housed both monks and nuns in 1152. A century later, the last monks left Weerselo, but the unmarried ladies of nobility remained.
The central building at Het Stift is without any doubt the Stiftskerk. Not only because of its size, age and religious significance, but also because it has functioned actively throughout all the centuries: in the Middle Ages as a monastery and parish church, then as Stiftskerk of the Reformed congregation. In the latter capacity, it still functions today.
Despite its use as part of a monastery and stift inhabited by nobility, the church is small and consists of one aisle only. It is probable that the walls of irregular pieces of natural stone are from the 14th century. Originally, the church was one trave longer. In 1523 a fire destroyed the church, and when it was repaired the nave was shortened and given a new front. The buttresses, the vaults and the upper parts of the wall date from this period as well.
Today, the Stiftskerk is used for weddings, concerts, funerals and church services.

Bon weekend. Amitiés
Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,liebe Grüße Güni :))
You've captured it superbly through the tree branches and the detail is excellent. I like the other views in the PiPs as well. In the interior shot, it's easy to see how old the church is.
A well researched narrative as always. Great work Jaap.
A fine series.
Beautiful spot and image capture
