Bethlehemkerk, Protestant church in The Hague, Netherlands
The Bethlehemkerk is a Protestant church in The Hague built with a modern design featuring concrete slats and large windows. The complex also includes a sexton house, youth center, and meeting rooms connected by renovated passages.
The church was built in 1963 during the post-war rebuilding period. It was created to meet the needs of a growing congregation seeking modern spaces for worship and community gatherings.
The congregation gathers here to worship and connect with neighbors who share their faith. You can see this sense of community reflected in how the spaces are used for both religious gatherings and local meetings.
The building complex is open to visitors and includes several rooms for different activities. It helps to explore the grounds slowly to understand the different connected spaces and what each area is used for.
The building houses a Leeflang organ installed in 1971 that visitors can hear during services. A special quiet room was added in 2015 during renovation work, offering a peaceful space for reflection.
