amsterdam in the autumn
amsterdam buildings 2The Oude Kerk (Old church) was built on the spot where in the 13th C a wooden chapel had been erected. The church was consecrated at the beginning of the 14th C and was dedicated to St Nicolas, the patron saint of sailors. After the Alteratie (reformation) in 1578 the church became a protestant church and the name was changed. Nowadays the church is a centre for art and heritage.#amsterdam_buildings #guide_service_amsterdam #visitamsterdam #walking_tour_amsterdam #your_private_guide_in_amsterdam #amsterdambeauty #oudekerk #iamyourguideinamsterdam #amsterdamviews #fremdenfuehrerin_amsterdam #besuchensieholland #amsterdam_in_the_autumn |
