Tower of the Fenix Church Nieuwe Niedorp

Highlight • Religious Site

The old church tower of Nieuwe Niedorp is a church tower from the 16th century. The somewhat crooked construction has a rich history of more than 5 centuries and has survived the demolition of 2 attached cruciform churches. The tower is a national monument and one of the most prominent buildings in the North Holland village. The foundation of the church tower was already laid in the 13th century. The construction of the tower probably took place in 4 phases. This was done so that the church tower had time to collapse between the construction phases. Presumably there was a pause period of 50 years between each construction phase. The construction of the church tower was completed in the 15th century.
Even before the construction of the tower was completed, construction of the choir started in the second half of the 14th century. A transept and three naves were later added to this. That is why Nieuwe Niedorp had a one-aisled cruciform church from the year 1500.
The church was dedicated to the holy bishop Martinus.

View of Westermolen Windmill

Highlight • Monument

The Westermolen is a polder mill on the Oosterweg in Nieuwe Niedorp, in the North Holland municipality of Hollands Kroon. This mill was built in 1854 to drain the Oosterpolder, together with two other mills, which were called the Oude Molen and the Nieuwe Molen. It replaced an earlier mill that burned down after being struck by lightning in the night of 18 to 19 February 1854. Unlike its predecessor, which was equipped with a scoop wheel, the new Westermolen pumps the water using an auger.
