Sint-Ritakerk, Roman Catholic church in Amsterdam-Noord, Netherlands
The Sint-Ritakerk features a basilica layout with dark brown brick walls, red-tiled roof, and multi-paned windows that illuminate interior spaces.
Constructed between 1921 and 1922, the church sustained severe damage during the 1943 bombardment of Amsterdam-Noord and underwent restoration from 1946 to 1947.
The interior displays decorative stained glass windows depicting scenes from Saint Rita's life, with one window donated by the Dominican Sisters.
The western section of the church building was transformed into a public library in 1973, adapting to serve additional community needs.
The church forms part of the Krophollercomplex, designed by Alexander Kropholler, including a presbytery and former Dominican convent at Buiksloterweg.
