First update of the year

The first update of 2024 is a new page about Steenbergen municipality in the province Noord-Brabant. There was a page about the town of Steenbergen long ago, with only two churches, and I must have taken it down in 2011 at the latest. The new page contains almost all churches of some importance in the municipality, one village is still missing, and is of course a vast improvement. 

Looking back at 2023, it was a year with a late start with the first update in May, but eventually with 16 updates posted. These included some big improvements of older pages, notably in the Zeeland and Overijssel sections, but there were also 22 new pages, three of which about architects, ten about specific churches and nine about municipalities. 

And now, a new year. Plenty of ideas, an ever enormous backlog and not enough time. Keep watching!

En nog even snel in het Nederlands: er is een nieuwe pagina over de gemeente Steenbergen in Noord-Brabant.

Some more Gelderland

This announcement is a bit overdue as I have been struggling with an error in the html-code of one of the pages involved, but here we are with a new page about the Reformed church of Beekbergen as well as some improvements to the pages about Apeldoorn, both the city and the villages in the eponymous municipality as well.

Two architects











Two new architect pages were added, by coincidence both about architects from the city of Rotterdam but each representing a different period as well as a side of the spectrum. The relatively unknown W.C. Coepijn designed several eclectic protestant (Gereformeerd) churches and is difficult to find information about, while there is so much to tell about the catholic P.G. Buskens that I had to restrict myself to the essentials.

...and some more

The Gelderland section has three new pages, one about Heerde municipality and the other about the reformed churches of the villages Heerde and Vorchten  (picture).

In het Nederlands: er is een nieuwe pagina over de kerken in de gemeente Heerde.

A bit of Gelderland

The pages about the town of Harderwijk and the Barneveld municipality both had some objects added and a few pictures replaced, while the page about the reformed church (see picture) in the town Barneveld has a few new pictures as well.

More new Zuid-Holland pages

Two more pages were added to the Zuid-Holland section; a fairly elaborate (close to complete) one about Alphen aan den Rijn municipality, and a good start (only two of its eight locations covered) at Bodegraven-Reeuwijk

In het Nederlands: nieuwe pagina's over de gemeenten Alpen aan den Rijn en Bodegraven-Reeuwijk

New Zuid-Holland pages

A new and more expansive page about Voorne aan Zee municipality replaces the old one about Brielle. The page about the reformed church of that specific town (see picture) is also updated. 

Also new is a page about the reformed church of Hendrik Ido Ambacht

In het Nederlands: er is een nieuwe pagina over de gemeente Voorne aan Zee, ter vervanging van, en een stuk uitgebreider dan, de pagina over Brielle.
