Grote Kerk, Gothic church in Haarlem, Netherlands.
The Grote Kerk stands at the center of Haarlem with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a wooden roof constructed from mountain stone and brick.
The construction of this religious structure began in 1400, incorporating elements from a previous church that burned down prior to 1307.
The interior features an oak pulpit from 1679, choir stalls from 1512, and numerous stained glass windows depicting biblical scenes and local narratives.
The church maintains a capacity of 1100 visitors and hosts regular religious services, concerts, and guided tours throughout the calendar year.
A Christiaan Muller organ from 1738 resides within the church walls, alongside the memorial tomb of Dutch painter Frans Hals.
