    The Bovenkerk is a prominent example of Gothic architecture in the Netherlands and is renowned for its imposing tower, which dominates the city's skyline. Construction of the church began in the 14th century, and it was completed in the 15th century. The church was built on higher ground, hence its name "Bovenkerk" or "Upper Church," to distinguish it from the lower-lying parts of the city.
