Nieuwezijds Kapel, Amsterdam, Protestant church building in central Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The Nieuwezijds Kapel, constructed in 1912, features an eclectic architectural style with a distinctive spire and stands behind a row of shops.
The current church replaced the Heilige Stede chapel from 1347, which was built following a reported miracle involving a eucharistic host in medieval Amsterdam.
The building represents the transition from Catholic to Protestant worship in Amsterdam, marking significant religious changes in the city's development.
The church structure integrates with commercial spaces, making it accessible through passages between Rokin and Kalverstraat streets in central Amsterdam.
Parts of the original medieval chapel remain visible in the Enge Kapelsteeg, while its historic spire now adorns the roof of De Papegaai church.
