Visit the Noorderkerk, the 1620s cross-shaped church at the heart of the Jordaan. Admire its symmetrical plan and, if an event is on, step inside for the programme staged within.

📖

Full description

The Noorderkerk was built between 1620 and 1623 and follows a distinctive symmetrical, cross-shaped plan, an early example of this layout for a Protestant church. It stands in the historic Jordaan district, an area known for its small streets and canals.

Beyond its role as a church, the interior hosts events, and reviewers mention an immersive Van Gogh and Rembrandt exhibition shown there with audio and projected visuals, which one family found suitable for children. Opening hours vary with programming, and a visit usually takes about fifteen minutes unless you attend an event.

Reviews

Was there for The immersive van Gogh and Rembrandt exhibition which was beautiful visually despite the overly dramatic fluff which was played on audio 😔
