Martelaren van Gorcum

The former catholic Martelaren van Gorcum (Martyrs of Gorcum) church, now made into apartments, but at least its neo-Classical façade has been saved. The original building dated from 1838 and was designed by J. van Nunen. The church was dedicated to the martyrs of Gorcum, a group of 19 monks from Gorinchem who were tortured and murdered because of their faith by protestant pirates in 1567.
