Recommend the tour to the tower. It is not expensive, you get super nice stories and details about the city. As well there are nice views on the area and city. It is Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday at 14:00 and 15:00.

Very good acoustics. Excellent location for (classical) concert.

I invite you to visit the paintings from the 17th century in the church in Naarden.

The great church of Naarden is special to me because years ago I attended the Mathews Passion. An event with royals and politicians and the most beautiful music ever written. So every now and then I undertake a small a pilgrimage to this 15th century church. This visit I was struck more than before by the paintings on the wooden vaults. I had not seen them in this splendor before. The light from the windows on this sunny day was perfect. The paintings were finished in 1518. They were re-discovered during the latest restoration. This is unique because much of the art in Dutch churches were destroyed during the reformation. In the middle of the church there are large mirrors that can help you to look at the drawings on the ceiling.

Can be seen from all around the little Naarden

Beautiful church, we had the memorial of my mother here, would not go to a different place to have such a beautiful memorial

Huge church, but closed. I don't think it really works. Other than that, nice to look from outside but looks just like many other churches.

Charming town with a reasonable farmer's market of great quality fruits/vegetables, plus nuts and dates (and more!).

This is very well maintained church in Naarden. The architecture is simply magnificent. The structure is huge and has an imposing presence on the square. At the church entrance you also get pamplets in various languages at free of cost. These pamplets contains the detailed description of the objects and artefacts that are kept there. There is no entry fee and can be accessed by anyone. The church has been well maintained and preserved. The medieval irgans are definitely one of the main attractions. Definitely one can visit this place after a trip of the vesting museum.

Nice church, playground behind and Commenius statue on the side. In the historical center of Naarden. We hope to return here soon.

It looks beautiful after recently having a major renovation 🙂

A wonderful place to experience Matthew Passion each Easter season. A pleasant 30 minute walk from the train station, with excellent restaurants in the center of Naarden.

Unfortunately it was closed hope to see the inside next time

It's rather unique experience to visit The 'Grand Church in Naarden Vesting. The ancient history of the Netherlands and specifically the province of North Holland can be seen in and around this landmark church dating back to the times when Charles V reigned this land. Many events, socially, historically and musically take places here the whole year around including the 'Mattäus Passion'.

The Grote Kerk Narden is a great place. Great, restrained interior, fantastic roof painting and a very friendly supervisor, explaining everything. A Gem, located in a superb small city / former citadel.
