The second biggest church in the Netherlands with beautiful stained glass windows
Most beautiful cathedral in Gouda, with colorful stained glass. There are also still services being held, so Sundays you are welcome there for free.
THE LONGEST CHURCH OF THE NETHERLANDS The great fire of 1552 destroyed a large part of the medieval Saint John. Shortly after the disaster, the administrators commissioned the construction of the most spectacular church in Holland. At 123 meters, it is also the longest church in the Netherlands THE 72 GOLD GLASSES ARE WORLD FAMOUS Whoever walks into St John falls silent on seeing the majestic space with the 72 world-famous stained glass windows. That experience only gets stronger when you see the wonderful light coming in through the "Dutch Masters". It is the start of an impressive journey of discovery through biblical and historical scenes full of human emotions.

The Sint-Janskerk of Gouda is a beautiful large cross church in the center of the city. At 123 meters, the church is the longest church in the Netherlands. However, this does not stand out because the church is hidden behind some monumental buildings. Only in the church do you notice the greatness of the church. The church is famous for its stained glass windows. These windows largely date from the sixteenth century. With this, the church owns the majority of the sixteenth century glass that is still present in the Netherlands. During the reformation, a large part of the interior of the church was demolished. Fortunately, the windows were spared. The church is open to the public and can be visited at an entrance. www.steden.net/netherlands/gouda/sint-janskerk/
