The
church of Biggekerke was founded before 1247 as a daughter church
of the Westmonsterkerk in Middelburg. The current Gothic church is
younger than that. The tower and the three-sided choir were built in
the 14th century. The tower is quite similar in style to that of nearby
Meliskerke, with similar sounding holes and heavy buttresses. Each
tower has a big stair-turret on one of its sides, but these are
distinctively different.
