  • The Laurenstjerke is a Dutch protestant church located in Donkerbroek, The Netherlands. Since 19xx the Laurenstjerke has formed a congregation with the dutch reformed church in Haule. The church community is affiliated with the Dutch Protestant Churches (PKN), which belongs within the Protestant tradition of Christianity. The church's beliefs were originally calvinistic. There is no exact date of the Origin of the church. We do know that at least one church was present in 1502. One of the bells of the bell tower bears the inscription: From scriptures there is knowledge that it was a Roman Catholic church dedicated to St. Lawrence (St. Laurentius in dutch and St Laurens in Frisian). In the 16th Century the protestants have rebuilded the church. After the reformation the church was united with the church in Oosterwolde. On July 13, 1700 marked the end of the band. It was decided that Donkerbroek and Haule would unite into one church. After the restoration in 2007-2008 the church has decided to use the original name St.Laurentius again. But there were already so many churches name St.Laurentius. As answer on this the congregation has decided to translate in frisian: de Laurentsjerke.
