Dating from 1450, the Great Church has a fine pulpit that was constructed in the following century. If you're here outside its limited visitor season (note that openings can be unreliable), you can take in concerts and organ recitals – check its online agenda for dates.

The neighbouring Oude Raadhuis (Old Town Hall; 1565) is a splendid example of Dutch Renaissance architecture.
