Nieuwe Kerk, Katwijk aan Zee, Protestant church in Katwijk aan Zee, Netherlands
The Nieuwe Kerk features a cross-shaped design with two wide naves and a long transept, constructed without supporting pillars for an open interior space.
The church construction started in 1885 after a design competition with 53 submissions, and Baroness Van Wassenaer van Catwijck laid the foundation stone.
The church hosts two Reformed congregations, each following distinct traditions while using the 1773 Psalm versification for their services.
The church structure accommodates 1900 attendees and includes a tower reaching 51 meters in height, making it visible from many points in Katwijk.
The organ, built by Jan van den Heuvel between 1981 and 1983, contains eighty independent voices distributed across four manuals and a pedal.
