Amstelkerk, Protestant church in Amsterdam-Centrum, Netherlands

The Amstelkerk features a square ground plan measuring 28.3 by 28.3 meters with vertical pine cladding walls painted in oxblood red color.

Architect Daniel Stalpaert constructed this wooden church between 1668 and 1670 during the fourth expansion of the Amsterdam Grachtengordel canal district.

The interior underwent renovation in 1840 under Hendrik Springer's supervision, introducing neo-Gothic elements that transformed the original simple design.

The church functions as a venue for concerts, formal dinners, weddings, and meetings, with offices maintained by Stadsherstel Amsterdam since 1986.

The structure was initially built as a temporary wooden preaching house, intended to be replaced with a stone church, yet remains standing after 350 years.
