About the artwork

The Abbey Tower is a 90.5-meter-high church tower belonging to the abbey complex in Middelburg. It is curiously situated against the south wall of the single-aisled Koorkerk. Nicknamed the Lange Jan, the tower is number eleven on the list of tallest church towers in the Netherlands.

The Abbey tower dates from the second half of the fourteenth century. It is octagonal in shape and clad in limestone.[1] The tower has been damaged by fire several times. In 1568, 1712 and May 1940. A Renaissance-style wooden spire was installed in 1590, this spire burned in 1712 after which Pieter Graafschap designed a new tall spire, which was thoroughly restored by city architect Jan de Munck from 1732-1734. After the bombing on May 17, 1940 during World War II, architect Jan de Meijer (1872-1950) from Amsterdam was commissioned by the Middelburg city council to restore the tower as early as August 1940. The reopening of the restored tower was on June 11, 1955. The spire was rebuilt in a simpler form with modifications to accommodate the carillon and bears an imperial crown as of old.
