Van Gogh church, Nuenen, Protestant church in Nuenen, Netherlands.

The octagonal church features an open tower and brick construction, with its original baptismal font and lectern preserved inside the main hall.

Vincent van Gogh created paintings of this church in 1884, expressing his connection to the building through detailed depictions of its architecture.

The religious building, located at Papenvoort 2 in Nuenen, opens its doors to visitors on selected Wednesdays and Sundays throughout the year.
