Reading Between the Lines – doorkijkkerkje

A church for the landscape. Only accessible on foot or by bicycle. One of the eye-catchers is the transparent church by the Belgian architectural duo Gijs Van Vaerenbergh (Pieterjan Gijs and Arnout Van Vaerenbergh). Reading between the Lines is 10 meters high and consists of 100 stacked layers of steel plate in the shape of a traditional Limburg church. The construction weighs a staggering 30 tons. The special construction method ensures that the landscape always remains visible through the church, both from a distance and up close. As a result, the church is both present and absent in the landscape.
