North Church - XVII century Protestant church in Amsterdam. The church was built in 1620-1623 gg. due to rapid population growth in Jordan - one of the districts of Amsterdam. In this area already existed a church called the West, but it was not enough. The parishioners of the Church of the North were mostly ordinary citizens, while the Western church attended mostly wealthy Amsterdammers.

The author of the project was the famous Dutch architect Hendrik de Keyser. He is the author of Southern and Western churches in Amsterdam. After his death in 1621, the construction of the church was completed under the leadership of his son, Peter de Keyser. Southern and Western churches are traditional basilica, the North Church in terms of symmetric and Phillips, which is more consistent with the ideals of the Renaissance and Protestantism. De Keyser unique project combines the octagonal floor, and a Greek cross with four beams of equal length. In the corners of the cross has a small extension, and the center of the building rises a tower.

Large-scale restoration of the church was carried out in 1993-1998., The tower was restored in 2003-2004, and the organ built in 1849 was updated in 2005. The bell tower was built in 1621. In the church still held service, it belongs to the Dutch Reformed Church. It also regularly hosts classical music concerts. In 1941 North Church held secret meetings on the preparation of the February strike, which is reminiscent of a memorial plaque on the south wall of the church.
