Stolphoevekerkje, Protestant church in Volendam, Netherlands.
Stolphoevekerkje is a wooden church in Volendam with a square layout and tent roof design. A bell tower rises from the roof peak at the top of the structure.
The church was built in 1658 by millwright Adriaan Nieng from Hoorn and has shaped the townscape since then. It gained Rijksmonument status in 1976, reflecting its national importance.
The interior showcases a hexagonal oak pulpit and baptismal fence from the 18th century. These fittings reflect the Protestant traditions that have been observed here for centuries.
The building functions as a place of worship and wedding venue, so visits should be arranged in advance through the local tourist office. Its location at Kolfschotenplein makes it easy to find and part of the town center.
The vaulted ceiling displays painted coats of arms from Holland, West Friesland, Edam, and Volendam, all united in this interior. These heraldic symbols tell the story of regional connections that this small community maintained with its surroundings.
