WATCH: St. Nicholas Church
WATCH: St. Nicholas Church
Kerkstraat 3WATCH: St. Nicholas Church
Construction of this Catholic church began in 1325. A lot less wide back then, about 11 metres. Dedicated to Peter and Paul. But from 1540 it is St Nicholas, who among other things protects people at sea.
In the hundreds of years that followed, the church expanded more and more into the church it is today. 82.5 metres long, 28.5 metres wide and almost 25 metres high! If you look closely, you can see that the wooden vault rests on carved figures, chalk statues. It's a good thing they sit so high, because that's probably why they survived the iconoclasm.
St Nicholas Church has had to endure more, though. The two largest glass windows next to the organ were destroyed by a storm in the early 1800s. They were subsequently bricked up. And the 1953 flood disaster also caused a lot of damage. And if that wasn't enough, some 40 years after that came the death watch beetle. They love wood and there is plenty of it in this church. Fortunately, the church has been well restored several times, so we can enjoy this beautiful church where history is there for the taking.

WATCH & QUESTION: Town Hall
WATCH & QUESTION: Town Hall
BrouwershavenWATCH & QUESTION: Town Hall
The back of this town hall was built in the 15th century and was probably the front then! So the front part was built later, in the 16th century. The lions bear arms. Arms of Zeeland and arms of Brouwershaven. Above the door, in a niche you can see the blindfolded Lady Justice sitting with her sword and scales. She speaks justice. Blindfolded, because she is impartial. It doesn't matter who you are. She hears everything and weighs (hence the scales) whether someone is guilty. If someone is guilty, punishment follows. She already keeps her sword at the ready.
The attic of the town hall also housed a prison. Around 1765, a swindler, Johan Cato Kamerling, sat here. He told everyone he was a doctor and many people believed him. He even married the mayor's daughter! But he was still exposed, thrown in jail and even branded.
On top of the town hall is another statue of a woman with three children. It is Charitas, or Mercy, because this building also housed an orphanage. Thus, it was and is a home for many different people.
