The goal set by Oldenzaal’s city council for the redesign of St. Plechelmus square was to make it the most beautiful square in Twente. St. Plechelmus square lies in the heart of Oldenzaal; it is the city’s landmark and terminus for the country roads that lead to the square. The oldest sections of the cathedral date from the twelfth century and its colourful stained glass windows, dating from the nineteenth century, make the cathedral truly unique.
