★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Westerkerk is often recommended as a place to visit due to the Westertoren clock tower that, once climbed, offers aerial views of the Jordaan neighborhood and Prinsengracht. However, with an a fee of €7 to climb the tower and an interior that some may describe as uninspiring, an alternative may be sought.
Walk 12 mins towards Singel to find De Krijtberg Kerk - A Roman Catholic church from 1881. De Krijtberg Kerk may not have a clock tower to climb but it's Neo-Gothic interior is far more impressive and dramatic. We were astounded by it's lavish and colourful decor, painted and gilded wood carvings, and many, many statues. Westerkerk pales in comparison.
Entry to De Krijtberg Kerk is free, and opening times can be found on it's website krijtberg.nl

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An absolutely beautiful church. It is rare to see the doors open, so go in if you see them ajar! The interior is beautifully colored and reminiscent of the older catholic church near central station, but with much fewer tourists. It's also close to several nice bookstores on the spui.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I came to see the church and got a nosebleed. The staff were so very kind and caring towards me! The church is incredibly ornate and very beautiful as well. I am grateful I was there! You should go see this church even if you aren’t in need of medical help :)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely amazing church. Found it by chance and it is definitely the most beautiful in whole of Amsterdam. Totally recommended for both religious and lay people like me loving architecture. Interior is in gothic revival style...

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Two words, Absolutely stunning. The architecture of this church is so beautiful and majestic. Once you enter you’ll find a bunch of candles devoted to the gods. You’ll have to donated 50 cents and offer a candle. Once you enter, you will immediately experience calmness and a positive energy. Everyone is welcome here and that’s the best part.
