Westerkerk

Description

Westerkerk i Amsterdam er en kirke på Prinsengracht 279-281, ved Westermarkt, på kanten af Jordaan. Den oprindeligt Nederlandske Reformerte og siden 1816 Nederlands Hervormde Westerkerkgemeente har siden 2004 været en del af den Protestantiske Kirke i Nederlandene.

Westerkerk blev bygget mellem 1620 og 1631 i renæssancestil efter tegninger af bygmester Hendrick de Keyser. Han ligger begravet i Zuiderkerk. Westerkerk blev færdiggjort under ledelse af sin søn Pieter de Keyser og taget i brug den 8. juni 1631.
Kirken har en længde på 58 meter og en bredde på 29 meter. Det høje midtæk er flankeret af de to lavere sideskibe. Den tre-skibede basilika har en rektangulær grundplan med to tværskibe af lige størrelser. Derfor fik grundplanen formen af to sammenkoblede græske kors.
