Church of St Peter and St Paul, Rijksmonument church in Kalverstraat, Netherlands
The Church of St Peter and St Paul features a three-nave hall design with Neo-Gothic elements, including a high altar and pulpit from 1850.
The church originated in 1672 as a hidden Catholic place of worship during Protestant restrictions, with the current structure completed in 1848 by architect Gerrit Moele.
The church maintains regular Latin Mass services with Gregorian chants, continuing centuries-old Catholic traditions in central Amsterdam.
Located at Kalverstraat 58, the church opens daily from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM except Sunday afternoons, offering visitors access to its historical architecture.
The nickname 'De Papegaai' derives from a parrot statue above the entrance, referencing the original building's owner who traded birds.
