The Oude Kerk church is the oldest church of Amsterdam. It has had an eventful history. It was plundered during the iconoclastic fury, served as a market square and even was home to tramps at one time.
In spite of all this, the impressive building is still the main religious center of Amsterdam. This church is the oldest religious building in Amsterdam. Since 1955, restoration work has been carried out on the church. Archeological finds during the restoration show that the church was originally built in Roman style. When Count Floris V's troops invaded Amsterdam in 1274 and burnt down a part of the city, construction work on the church was discontinued.
