NeTherLands oLd ArchiTecTure... OudE KeRk in AmsTeRdaM

AMSTERDAM OUDE KERK
The Oude Kerk in Amsterdam was built in 1250 and is known as the oldest church in Amsterdam. Outside you can still see the various phases of the five centuries construction. The old church has received the title of European monuments and shelters the treasures such as the Vater-Müller organ in 1724/1738, several tombs of Dutch naval heroes and the tomb of the first spouse of  Rembrandt.

About this Blog

I make this blog for foreigners who will live in this country, THE NETHERLANDS. Foreigners who are engaged or married they have to learn a lot of things about their new home like the culture, architectures, landscape, government, dikes etc. Especially the Dutch language which is very important in their social life. It is very difficult if they cannot communicate with other people. Most people speak Dutch, only few speaks English.
For visitors and readers, this will give you an idea what this country is. This small country ranks no. 5 in the economic stability in EUROPE. Their architectures like palaces, castles, dikes, ports (air and sea) are amazing.
Their culture is very interesting.
