 Noorderkerk and the Noordermarkt, Netherlands. Travel guide & tourist information by Hostelbookers.com
At the east end of Westerstraat, overlooking the Prinsengracht, is Hendrik de Keyser's Noorderkerk (March–Nov Sat 11am–1pm; free), the architect's last creation and probably his least successful, finished two years after his death in 1623.
Uncompromisingly dour, it proclaimed the serious intent of the Calvinists who worshipped here in so far as the pulpit – and therefore the preacher proclaiming the Word of God – was at the centre and not at the front of the church, a symbolic break with the Catholic past.
The Noordermarkt, the somewhat inconclusive square outside the church, holds a statue of three figures bound to each other, a poignant tribute to the bloody Jordaanoproer riot of 1934, part of a successful campaign to stop the government cutting unemployment benefit during the Depression.
