La Oude Kerk (Iglesia Vieja) es el edificio m\u00e1s antiguo de \u00c1msterdam y se alza en el coraz\u00f3n del centro medieval, en el barrio de De Wallen. Hacia 1250 ya hab\u00eda aqu\u00ed una capilla de madera, y el 17 de septiembre de 1306 el obispo de Utrecht consagr\u00f3 la iglesia a san Nicol\u00e1s, patr\u00f3n de los marineros. Cuando en 1409 se consagr\u00f3 la Nieuwe Kerk en la plaza Dam, la Sint Nicolaaskerk pas\u00f3 a conocerse como la Iglesia Vieja. En los siglos siguientes creci\u00f3 hasta convertirse en una gran iglesia de sal\u00f3n g\u00f3tica, terminada hacia 1570.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The church lost most of its Catholic art in the iconoclasm of 1566 and the Alteration of 1578, when Amsterdam turned Protestant, which explains its sober interior; only the paintings on the ceiling, out of reach, survived. That ceiling is the largest medieval wooden vault in Europe. The floor is made up of about 2,500 gravestones over the graves of some 60,000 people, among them Rembrandt’s wife Saskia van Uylenburgh and the naval hero Jacob van Heemskerck. Look out for the stained-glass windows of the Lady Chapel, added in 1552, and the Vater-M\u00fcller organ of 1724, one of the finest Baroque organs in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2012 the Oude Kerk has also been a venue for contemporary art: artists create new works for the building, shown in the main church alongside side chapels with historical displays. Protestant services are still held on Sunday mornings, and the church hosts concerts and events. It is open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 18:00 and on Sunday from 13:00 to 17:30, and closes on King’s Day (27 April), Christmas Day and while exhibitions are being installed. It is usually quietest before noon and on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
