More information on Noorderkerk

In 1620 the northern part of the Jordaan welcomed its own church, the Noorderkerk, built in 1620-1623, by Hendrick de Keyser and his son Pieter. During the Renaissance period the centrifugal geometrical concept of the church was the ideal construction. It symbolized humanistic principles, and the architecture matched the Protestant service, in which the pulpit fulfilled a central role. The location, however, is medieval, with houses surrounding it. The church is still in use as a Protestant church. In 1998 drastic renovations were completed.
