New Church

Ce point d’intérêt est disponible en audio dans le circuit: Visit Amsterdam, Along the canals
In front of you stands another of the city’s important monuments, right beside Dam Square. This church is called the Nieuwe Kerk—or in English, the New Church. Despite what its name suggests, this church isn’t as new as you think—it’s actually 600 years old. Since 1814, it has hosted coronation ceremonies of Dutch kings and queens. Cool, right? It was built in the 15th century in addition to the Old Church, which had become too small to accommodate the growing number of worshippers in the city.
