The Emmaüskerk
The Emmaüskerk, also known as the Emmaus Church, is a Reformed church located in the city of Eindhoven, Netherlands.
The church was built between 1956 and 1961 and was designed by architect Wim Quaedvlieg.
- The church's architecture is characterized by its modernist design, with a striking bell tower that rises above the surrounding buildings.
- The name "Emmaüskerk" comes from the Gospel of Luke (Luke 24:13-35), which tells the story of Jesus appearing to two disciples on the road to Emmaus after his resurrection.
The church has become an iconic landmark in Eindhoven, and its design is often cited as an example of modernist architecture in the Netherlands.
- The church serves as a place of worship for the Protestant Reformed Church in the Netherlands (PKN), one of the largest Christian denominations in the country.
Visitors to the Emma��skerk can enjoy the beautiful stained-glass windows, which were designed by artist Joep Nicolas.
The church is located at Willem van Kesselstraat 186, 5622 JD Eindhoven, Netherlands. If you're interested in learning more about this remarkable church, I recommend visiting the official website or contacting the church directly for a guided tour.
