Church
The Protestant church of Wyns or Saint Vitus Church[1] is a religious building in Wyns, Netherlands, one of the medieval churches in Friesland. The nave and quintuple closed choir date from c. 1200 and are built out of red brick.[1] The building has a tower that dates from the 13th century and a pipe organ that was built in 1899 by Bakker & Timmenga from Leeuwarden.[1]
The church is located on the Wijns 31[2] and was once a Roman Catholic church dedicated to Saint Vitus but became a Protestant church after the Protestant reformation. It is listed as a Rijksmonument, number 35690, and is rated with a very high historical value.[3]
