Climb and enjoy the view from the tower of the Evangelical-Reformed Church of Saint Lawrence (Kirche St. Laurentius).

The church is also known as große Kirche (“Big Church”) or Schüttorfer Riese (“Schüttorf Giant”).

It is a three-naved hall church built in the Gothic style with four bays, a transept and a polygonal choir.

The church’s overall length is 54m and its width 19m. The tower is 81.17m high and can be seen from anywhere in Schüttorf.

There are six bells hanging in the tower, among them an old firebell from 1435. The church’s organ is a two-manualled instrument with tin pipes. it was built in 1963 by the Swiss organ-building business Th. Kuhn.
