Sint-Clemenskerk, Catholic church in Nes, Netherlands.
Sint-Clemenskerk is a church in Nes on Ameland island, built in neo-Gothic style with a single nave, paired lancet windows, and wooden detailing throughout. The building now serves both as a worship space and a community gathering place for local events.
The church was built in 1878 based on designs by architect Pierre Cuypers. It underwent major restoration after a severe fire in 2013 damaged the interior.
The interior features stained glass windows depicting local plants, animals, and the tidal rhythms that shape life on Ameland island. These modern designs connect the space to the natural world surrounding the community.
The church is located at Kardinaal de Jongweg 33 in Nes and welcomes visitors for viewing and community events. Check opening times before visiting, as access may vary depending on services or special events.
Wooden construction pieces were prefabricated at Cuypers' workshop in Amsterdam before being transported to the island for assembly. This method allowed precise on-site installation, an uncommon practice for church building in that era.
