Old Church (Oude Kerk)

Amsterdam’s oldest church, the Old Church (Oude Kerk), was consecrated in 1303. This triple-nave Gothic structure stands in the heart of the city’s notorious red-light district, surrounded by window brothels, coffee shops, and bars. Inside, visitors can explore an impressive Christian Müller organ and admire some scandalous 15th-century carvings. The floor is a unique feature, built from gravestones, adding to the church’s historical and architectural significance.
