Lonely Planet review

This neoclassical Catholic church, built in 1841 on the northeastern corner of Waterlooplein, shows that this wasn't exclusively a Jewish area. It replaced the 'clandestine' Catholic church that occupied two houses named Mozes and Aäron in what is now the rear of the church along Jodenbreestraat (note the wall tablet of Moses above the street corner).

Despite its impressive organ, it is no longer used as a church, but rather by social, cultural and educational organisations which often hold exhibitions. Otherwise, the church is generally closed to the public.
