nieuwe kerk印象
-
Be aware that apart from Sunday service (morning and 5 pm), the church is closed on Sundays. I could only see part of it during the mass, and it seems very impressive. It is under restoration, but lots of information on the restoration panels surrounding the church about construction and important historical people connected to the church, Netherland's history and town.

the father of the fatherland is buried here and the rest of the royal family, as i always heard from dutch friends. checked it out with a great tour guide, it was memerable.

This is one must visit place in your Delft trip. Probably because most of the other buildings are not very tall, this church is very impressive because of its tall spire. You can buy your tickets inside to visit the Nieuwe Kerk. It also entitles you an entry into the Oude Kerk. It costed about 3 Euros. You will have to buy a separate tickets to go on top of the spire. There are no lifts, though. Unfortunately for us, it was closed the day we visited. It is an old church of historical importance. Many Kings, princes and dignitaries are buried here. The church also has old Bibles in Dutch on display.

In discussing Nieuwe Kerk with my husband, I pointed out that the new church is actually old. One hundred years to build (1396-1496), the New Church was old before it was completed. Not unusual for the period and the structure has withstood the test of time. A splendid narrow church, it towers above its shorter sister church, Oude Kerk, Old Church. Nieuwe Kerk is the second tallest church tower in the Netherlands.You can't see one of the churches without seeing the other. Standing in the Markt, Nieuwe Kerk is stately perched across from the City Hall. With the tombs of many notable royals from the Netherlands, and others including Hugo de Groot, the early founder of international law, the New Church has achieved the title as the preeminent church in Delft with the private tomb of the royals. The statue of Hugo de Groot is in front of Nieuwe Kerk. Still, the Oude Kerk has my vote as the more fascinating of the two churches, even if it is somewhat shorter and older. Age isn't really a factor when the gap is only a couple of centuries! Both churches are beautiful and the tours are interesting and extremely beneficial. Highly recommended.

I didn't really look around the church, but I did climb the tower, knackering but the views are worth it! it makes for amazing photo's and on a clear day you can see Rotterdam!

Try to get the whole story, do not just walk in and out. And if you have enough time, climb the tower. The views is impressive

The church interior is a bit like a museum about the Dutch royal family and their lineage from William of Orange. There are displays where you can read about different figures as well as some history about the church itself.

If you just go there, it could be rather boring. Don't forget it's a Protestant church (now) so there are almost no paintings or statues that you would see in churches and cathedrals in the south.So you could get written material or audio tours. But better: There are guides of Delft available that include the church. And then it's very interesting. They do speak English and can be booked via tourist centers etc.

It was a bit troublesome to climb up the tower using the narrow spiral staircase but I thought it's totally worth it. When you reach the top, you can have a wonderful wide-angle view of the city. The building itself is beautiful as well. The area around the church is also enjoyable to walk and see.
