Koningskerk

The Koningskerk is a church building from the 1950s in Watergraafsmeer with a clear, functional design typical of the post-war period. The structure features modern lines and simple forms meant for worship services and community gatherings.

The building was constructed starting in 1954 and completed in 1956 as Amsterdam was recovering from the war and expanding residential areas. The construction was part of a wave of modern church projects built during that period to serve growing communities.

The church serves the Moravian congregation as a meeting place for worship and community events. It reflects the traditions of this Protestant movement and shapes the spiritual life of the neighborhood.

The church is accessible and centrally located within the Watergraafsmeer residential neighborhood. Visitors should check when services take place, as these times may vary seasonally.

The church was founded by the Moravian Church, a historic Protestant movement with roots across Europe. This heritage subtly shows in the plain architecture and how the space is designed for bringing people together.
