Norwegian Seamen's Church, Seaman's church in Het Park, Rotterdam, Netherlands.

The Norwegian Seamen's Church displays wooden construction with traditional Norwegian architectural elements, featuring a tall spire and decorative details throughout its structure.

The church, built in 1914 with timber parts from Norway, underwent relocation in 1937 to accommodate the construction of the Maas Tunnel.

The church maintains Norwegian traditions by organizing regular services, celebrations, and social gatherings for maritime professionals and Norwegian residents.

Located at Westzeedijk 300 in Rotterdam, the church offers support services, legal assistance, and resources for seafarers and their families.

Norwegian carpenters assembled the church on site using components transported directly from Norway, creating an authentic Norwegian structure in the Netherlands.
