Old church of Amsterdam - Oude Kerk, Amsterdam
Under the wooden vaults of the city’s oldest building, contemporary art dialogues with eight centuries of history. This medieval monument, now an audacious creative space, hosts spectacular temporary installations amidst 2,000 tombs. As you walk across this ground laden with stories, you encounter the fate of Saskia van Uylenburgh, Rembrandt's wife and muse, or that of composer Sweelinck, nicknamed the Orpheus of Amsterdam. This fusion between Gothic architecture and contemporary works offers a singular journey through time. For younger visitors, a free treasure hunt transforms the visit into a playful adventure through the nave. Admission includes entry to the site as well as temporary exhibitions, allowing you to grasp the full duality of this vibrant place.
