Koepelkerk, Neoclassical church in Renswoude, Netherlands

The Koepelkerk features an octagonal dome supported by Ionic columns, with a Greek cross floor plan and short arms creating a compact structure.

Johan van Reede commissioned architect Jacob van Campen to construct the church between 1639 and 1641, prior to building the nearby Kasteel Renswoude.

The seating arrangements during services reflected social status, with nobles in comfortable seats while regular attendees stood behind gravestones.

Visitors can access the church during Nederlands Hervormde Kerk services and on Tuesday afternoons throughout July and August.

The church contains multiple coats of arms from noble descendants of William of Orange, including Amalia van Solms and Frederick V of the Palatinate.
