Nieuwe Kerk Church in Amsterdam
Über
In 1408, due to the increasing number of parishioners, the Archbishop of Utrecht ordered the construction of another temple in addition to the church of Saint Nicholas. Initially, the new sanctuary was named after Saints Mary and Catherine. Throughout its history, the church was engulfed by fire three times. Following the last of these incidents, it had to be rebuilt. At the same time, its architectural style was changed. In 1645, the temple was presented in the Gothic style, which can be admired today. For a long time, Nieuwekerk was used for the coronation of the ruling family and the marriage of young princes and princesses. Today, it hosts various exhibitions and organ music concerts.

Mooi vormgegeven tentoonstelling. World Press Photo geeft een gevarieerd, maar ook een overwegend negatief wereldbeeld. Helaas heeft goed nieuws weinig “nieuwswaarde”. Een echt minpunt vond ik de zogenaamde medewerkers vlakbij de ingang: ze bleken gladde verkopers te zijn van de Vriendenloterij. Ik vind het onbegrijpelijk dat De Nieuwe Kerk dat soort praktijken toestaat.

The church is a symbol of Amsterdam’s rising power and spatial expansion in the late Middle Ages. Today, it serves as a national ceremonial site as well as a cultural venue for major exhibitions and concerts. Construction began in 1408, and the church was consecrated in 1409. It suffered from major fires in 1421, 1452, and 1645, after which it was repeatedly rebuilt. The current structure reflects a blend of Late Gothic and Neo-Gothic elements, with a major renovation carried out between 1892 and 1914. Originally a Roman Catholic church, it was converted to Protestant use in 1578. Since the inauguration of King William I in 1814, it has been the site of royal coronations and state weddings, including the 2013 inauguration of King Willem-Alexander. The church is is also the final resting place of several prominent Dutch figures. Among them are the celebrated poet Joost van den Vondel and the famed 17th-century naval admiral Michiel Adriaenszoon de Ruyter. The church also houses the Netherlands’ largest pipe organ, a richly carved pulpit, and a brass choir screen.

Cool church, quite empty, way way too expensive
