Tower

A strange flat tower of the Laurentius Church in the small fortified town Weesp,  but it hasn't been always like this.

In November 2016 a fire,  caused by an electric fault,  destroyed the top of the tower. Fortunately the tower was saved.

This was what was  left of the steeple.

  4. I wonder if there are plans to restore it one day. It's a shame it had to burn but also good that the whole church didn't go up in flames.

  5. God fortune that it didn't ignite the rest of the building. I wonder if they will restore it to its original design.

  7. Glad the whole tower didn't burn down. That will be a restoring project sometime in the future if funds are available.

    This is the town that has a Dementia Village. I just read an article about it. That is a wonderful benefit for the people who suffer from it.

  10. Good thing it didn't start at the bottom or it would have been just like pouring gasoline on it.
