Churches at Uelsen and Surroundings

Here you may get some insight into the Churches and religious communities at our place. The region with the parish Uelsen as the central spot was (and still is) mainly of Reformed character. In the 19th century the Alt-Reformierte Kirche (Christian Reformed Church) came into being. By the end of the second World War Lutherans and Catholics settled down here as well.

All information given are to the best of our's knowledge and belief, but without responsibility. We are thankful for any broadening information and correction. We would like to ask members (from the Uelsen area) of religious communities not listed here to give us some kind of description or a contact address. We will include it to this document.

The following sources have been used:

  • The book "850 Jahre Uelsen", published by the municipality Uelsen for its 850th anniversary in 1981.

  • The brochure "Uelsen, Veranstaltungen und Informationen" by the VVV Uelsen, 2000.

  • Leaflet "Zur Geschichte der Evangelisch-reformierten Kirche in Uelsen" by Dr Geert Geerink, 1978.
