Church
Martelaren van Gorcum kerk
The church was dedicated to the Martyrs of Gorcum in 1870. These monks were murdered in 1572 by the Geuzen (people who resisted Spanish rule during the Eighty Years' War) because they refused to convert to the Protestant faith. The Martyrs of Gorcumkerk was founded 300 years after the death of the monks and is therefore dedicated to them.
