About Grote or Sint-Laurenskerk

Grote or Sint-Laurenskerk (English: Great, or St. Lawrence church) is a Reformed Protestant church in Alkmaar, Netherlands. At present, it is not used for church services; it is mostly closed in the winter and open for tourists in the summer months or by appointment. The building is located on the Koorstraat (choir street). History Organ The Grote Kerk (1470–1498), dedicated to St Lawrence, is a handsome building and contains the tomb of Floris V, Count of Holland (d. 1296), a brass of 1546, and some paintings (1507). Anna Visscher is buried in this church. The church was designed by Anthonius Keldermans (c. 1440–1512), from a church building family from Mechelen.
