The White Church is a white-plastered church on Heerenweg in the North Holland town of Heiloo. The building was built between the 11th and 17th centuries in tuff stone. The church has not been used as such since 2001, in which year the Ter Coulsterkerk was completed and took over its main task as a Protestant church. Only special celebrations are still held in the White Church. The building is also used as a cultural centre and is open to the public on Wednesdays during the summer months.
The church was painted white between 1822 and 1829 to disguise earlier repairs. Only since the Second World War has it been referred to as the White Church and later the White Church. There is a Willibrordus well in the churchyard wall.
Here, a stylised version of an infrared photograph was chosen, with modern elements such as traffic signs and bicycle racks camouflaged in the edit. The mystique of the little church is thus better expressed.
