photomechanical print dated to 1900, depicting the interior of the Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk (Great, or St. Lawrence Church); Protestant church in Rotterdam. It is the only remnant of the medieval city of Rotterdam. The church was built between 1449 and 1525. In 1621 a wooden spire was added to the tower, designed by Hendrick de Keyser. Poor quality of its wood caused the spire to be demolished in 1645. A stone cube was added to the tower, which proved too heavy for the foundation in 1650. In the Rotterdam Blitz on May 14, 1940 the Laurenskerk was heavily damaged. Stock Photo
