The fairytale Vondel church was built in 1872 and designed by Pierre Cuypers, who also designed the Central Station and the Rijksmuseum. From 1880 to 1977 she was used as a church for the Catholic parish. It was the first church building in the world to be dedicated to the Most Holy Heart of Jesus. The striking church was built as part of the Vondelstraat. In 1999 the church was restored and today it’s a multifunctional building.
