Francis Xavier Church (De Krijtberg Kerk) at the Singel, Amsterdam, Netherlands
De Krijtberg Kerk is a Roman Catholic church in Amsterdam, located at the Singel. The church was designed by Alfred Tepe and was opened in 1883. The church is dedicated to St Francis Xavier and is one of the rectorates within the Roman Catholic parish of St Nicholas, and is recognised by its two pointed towers. Since 1654 there has been a Jesuit church at this location. The original clandestine church was replaced by another one in 1677. The current Neo-Gothic church was built on the same space in 1881

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Francis Xavier Church, also known as De Krijtberg Kerk, situated along the picturesque Singel in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Designed by Alfred Tepe and inaugurated in 1883, this Roman Catholic church is a true architectural gem dedicated to St Francis Xavier. With its distinctive Neo-Gothic style and two elegant pointed towers, the church stands proudly within the Roman Catholic parish of St Nicholas. Its historical significance dates back to 1654 when a Jesuit church was first established on this site. Over time, it underwent transformations until finally being replaced by the current magnificent structure in 1881. The monumental front of De Krijtberg Kerk boasts intricate stone detailing that adds to its allure. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies dotted with fluffy clouds, this photograph captures not only the beauty of the building itself but also highlights its harmonious integration into Amsterdam's skyline. Surrounded by lush trees and framed by crosses atop its towers, this image encapsulates both serenity and grandeur. It serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage embodied within Amsterdam's landmarks. Artie Photography skillfully captures all these elements in their stunning composition, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also feel an emotional connection with this iconic Dutch landmark.
