Facts and practical information

St. Lambert's Church is the Protestant church in Buren located on the Market Square in the center of the town.

The church was founded in 1367 as a chapel and named a parish church in 1395 after St. Lambert. In that year the Utrecht bishop Frederik van Blankenheim gave permission for the believers in Buren to form an independent parish in the Lambert church. In the 15th century the church was extended with side aisles and a new main choir and received its present form. The church has a tower in with a superstructure in Renaissance style, which was built by Alessandro Pasqualini and Pieter Post.

The church was restored from 1973 to 1980. The church tower was restored in 1990. The Bätz organ dates back to 1852.

Since 2014, the church has been owned by the Old Gelderland Churches Foundation.
