Kapelkerk, Gothic church building in central Alkmaar, Netherlands

The Kapelkerk features Gothic pointed arch windows, a classicist tower with a dome, and a northern addition in Hollands-classicist architectural style.

The church underwent reconstruction after a severe fire in 1760, leading to modifications including a new pulpit funded by Guurtje de Volder.

The building contains stained glass windows created by W. Bogtman between 1924 and 1942, and Louis XIV style pews with curling acanthus leaf designs.

Services are held every Sunday morning at 10:00, while the church remains open for visits on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the week.

The church houses one of only two remaining Müller organs in Alkmaar, constructed in 1762 by Christian Müller and restored multiple times.
