Nieuwe Kerk

The Nieuwe Kerk (English: New Church), in the 18th century also called Noorderkerk, is a Protestant church in the city of Groningen, located on the Nieuwe Kerkhof in the Hortusbuurt. The "new" in the name of the church is a reference to the "old" Sint-Walburgkerk. Originally the cemetery was called

the Nieuwe Sint-Walburgkerkhof. The church is located on the northernmost hill of the Hondsrug; the Noordes or Tie (Thye).
