Adullamkerk

A church located in Katwijk aan Zee, Netherlands.

The name "Adullam" likely refers to the biblical cave of Adullam, which was said to be a refuge for King David when he was fleeing from his enemies.

The church has a rich history dating back to the 17th century, and it is believed that the first church on this site was built around 1638. The current building was constructed in the 19th century and features a striking Gothic Revival-style architecture.

  • Beautiful stained-glass windows, which were designed by local artist Jan Toorop in the early 20th century.
  • A historic organ, which dates back to the late 18th century and is considered one of the oldest in the Netherlands.

Today, Adullamkerk remains an active place of worship for the local community and is also open to visitors who wish to admire its stunning architecture and beautiful art.
