St. Nicholas Basilica (Sint Nicolaasbasiliek)
Amsterdam's most important Roman Catholic church, the Basilica of St. Nicholas, was built between 1884 and 1887 and is one of the city's most recognizable landmarks thanks to its striking Neo-Baroque and Neo-Renaissance elements. An elaborate rose window by the renowned Van den Bossche and Crevels workshop adorns the façade.

St. Nicholas Basilica
Local Name: Sint Nicolaaskerk
Location: Centrum, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Located in the heart of Amsterdam, this Catholic masterpiece is a sight to behold. It was built around 1887 with Neo-Baroque and Neo-Renaissance elements, and its status was elevated to basilica in 2012.
There is a beautiful rose window (a circular window, usually divided into different patterns using other materials) between the towers. In addition to religious murals on the interior walls of the basilica, this building also features the crown of Maximilian I.
