    A Roman Catholic Cathedral full of details for both interior and exterior. Amazingly eye catching and huge, especially the colorful windows. Nice cafe's all around it with the view. If you visit Den Bosch, be careful not to miss here. It is a must-see place.

    Last weekend we visited this beautiful cathedral. It was one of the last weekends that we were allowed to clime the cathedral from the outside, what made this visit extra special.

    Beautiful cathedral both inside and out. I was impressed by the huge organ which we were lucky to hear playing. There are also some interesting works of art. We tried going up but it's necessary to buy tickets in advance because the spots are filled up quickly.

    This Cathedral is amazing from the beginning you can see its Gothic style from the outside and inside --however, back on the days was more Romanesque but it was demolished =( --. You can walk for most of the places inside. as It is Gothic the combination between dark places and lights, makes it perfect contrast. the main tower has 74 meters and this make it the highest church in The Netherlands.

    When you get a century's experience due to renovation in the church, one should not miss it. One of the oldest churches of Den Bosch is a must visit to go through an exhibition and see the intricacies carved so beautifully on every wall.

    Absolutely beautiful me and my husband were in awe over this church we walked around outside and inside. It is completely worth going to see and enjoying the rich history of this church. It was also nice you could buy a cadle with pinpas so we could light one for a blessing our rat willow.

    We used the chance for the Avontuurlijke Klim at Sint-Jan: climbing all the way to the top and seeing the cathedral from so close, with the view from it was breathtaking! Not really for the ones who are afraid of heights but recommended highly as this is a one in a lifetime opportunity!

    Lovely, well preserved Catholic Church and i love the idea that they put terminals where you can pay easily with cards (if you dont have cash on hand) when you want to light candles.

    Beautiful historic Catholic cathedral. It's free to enter and very peaceful and atmospheric to wander around. The organ is particularly impressive, and has a wonderfully carved wooden surround. You can go up onto the roof for a great view (children must be aged 8 or over to do this). We came by car and parked 5 minutes away at Voetgangersuitgang parkeergarage St-Jan which was very convenient.

    climbing the beautiful cathedral was amazing and an amazing view . Unfortunately we couldn’t get inside due a service in the church.

    Going up to the top roof is great! You can really appreciate the art, the work and the risk that those workers took to create and build such a magnificent piece of architectural work

  • 5/5 Polina L. 1 year ago on Google

    The Catholic Cathedral Church of St. John (Sint-Janskathedraal) of 's-Hertogenbosch, North Brabant is one of the most beautiful churches in the Netherlands. It is a Gothic church with richly decorated interior. It serves as the cathedral for the bishopric of 's-Hertogenbosch (Den Bosch). inside you can see the miraculous Statue of Our Lady of ’s-Hertogenbosch. There is also a small chapel dedicated to orthodox icons. It is definitely worth visiting.

    Beautiful church in an amazing location. Church building is a state of art with a lot of natural light and a beautiful wood pillars. The environment is quite with a feeling of a sacred place. The pipe organ is a majestic part of the church. I recommend everyone to visit this church.

    My favourite place in Hertogenbosh ❤️ All cathedral is majestic and it’s nice to leave near one . Details are incredibly you can spend a lot of time to look around and from the inside are different art . Every time we are going to centre always visiting the church ♥️

    Beautiful catholic cathedral, gothic style located in the central area of ​​the city of Hertogenbosch. The cathedral impresses with its construction and size. I was impressed by the architectural beauty features.

  • 5/5 Nikitas D. 2 years ago on Google
    Simply majestic! Fist time in a cathedral and happy it was this one. Amazed by everything in the Church. Grote Kerk truly justifies its name (grote=big) , a gigantic monument of beauty and elegance . And don't forget to eat in any of the cafe places around , a Bossche Bol ..harder to write the name than eat the thing

    I am an American visiting friends in The Netherlands, and I recently visited the Sint-Janskathedraal, which is is a stunning cathedral in s'-Hertogenbosch. The cathedral is almost 800 years old and includes many popular relics visited by the Catholic faithful. I visited the day before Easter Sunday, and the cathedral looked perfect. It was inspirational to see all of the holy items, the artwork, and the architecture. Be sure not to miss the amazing statues on the roof of the cathedral and be sure to look for the woman on her cell phone (calling a hotline to God)!

  • 5/5 VISWANATH M. 2 years ago on Google
    Roman Catholic St Johns Cathedral one of the tallest in Netherlands and looks majestic in the city centre.

  • 5/5 Timmy 2 years ago on Google
    A-ma-zing structure! Truly majestic! Probably the most impressive organ I've ever seen. The all seeing eye in the middle is quite the eye catcher (see what I did there?). I can imagine this must've left a deep impression with the people back then as it still does today.
