Amsterdam_XXXIn the middle of the city’s ‘Red Light District’ stands the “Oude Kerk”, the city’s oldest building, founded in 1️⃣3️⃣0️⃣6️⃣. Its vast wooden ceiling, gives the Gothic interior a unique atmosphere. 🧖‍♀️🕯️<br> <br> The church shifted from Catholic to Protestant after the 1️⃣5️⃣7️⃣8️⃣ Reformation. Many locals were buried here, including some prominent figures, like Saskia van Uylenburgh, Rembrandt’s wife. 🪦☠️ 🎨 <br> <br> Now a cultural venue, it hosts exhibitions, concerts &amp; art. Though no longer used for services, its historic soul remains alive at the Oudekerksplein. ⛪️ <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/amsterdam?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#amsterdam</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/noir?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#noir</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/oldtown?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oldtown</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/oudekerk?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oudekerk</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/gothic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gothic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/iconic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iconic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/buildwithbloodmoney?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#buildwithbloodmoney</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/streetview?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#streetview</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/oudekerksplein?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oudekerksplein</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/oldestbuilding?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oldestbuilding</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/stainedglass?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stainedglass</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/burialground?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#burialground</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/oudekerksplein?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oudekerksplein</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/photo?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photo</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/picture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#picture</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/streetphotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#streetphotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ornaments?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ornaments</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/oudezijdsvoorburgwal?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oudezijdsvoorburgwal</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/venue?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#venue</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/redlightdistrict?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#redlightdistrict</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/remvrandt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#remvrandt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/clearsky?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#clearsky</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/monument?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#monument</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/veniceofthenorth?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#veniceofthenorth</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/church?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#church</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/kirche?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kirche</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/kerk?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kerk</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/canalsofamsterdam?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canalsofamsterdam</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bricks?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bricks</a>
