Grote Stadskerk, Paramaribo, Suriname

• ... that Grote Stadskerk (pictured), a church located in the historical centre of Paramaribo, is the first and the largest church of the Moravian congregation in Suriname? Source: [1], [2]

• Reviewed: Jakob Grün
• Comment: Please use both the sources together to verify the hook in its entirety, and also note that these are in Dutch.

• Date, size, refs, hook, neutrality, QPQ, cv spotcheck, all GTG. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:24, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

• KittenKlub and Ashleyyoursmile, those sources describe the church, but neither explicitly says that the church is the first or the largest. In fact, one says that another church formerly stood where the current one now does! Is there a better source for your hook? MeegsC (talk) 13:08, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

• MeegsC From source 1: "Dit eerste gebouw werd toen gebouwd op dezelfde plaats waar thans de Grote Stadskerk staat" This first building was built on the same place as the Grote Stadskerk. "Het eerste, oudste en grootste kerkgebouw" "The first, oldest, and biggest church." Source 2 also says: "De kerk zoals die er nu staat is in de 19e eeuw ontstaan door vele verbouwingen van het eerste gebouw." "The church as exists day has been developed in the 18th century through many reconstructions of the first building."

So the current church is the second expanded version of the original church and is on the same location. KittenKlub (talk) 13:15, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

My apologies; I got to the end of the top post, and thought that was it! MeegsC (talk) 13:21, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
