History: Oudezijds Voorburgwal and Oudezijds Achterburgwal: The canals and embankments on the 'Oudezijde' (the 'old side' of the city)—such as the Oudezijds Voorburgwal and Oudezijds Achterburgwal—came into existence around 1385. This area defined the physical boundary and structure of the medieval city center, characterized by numerous narrow alleyways and historic buildings. The Oude Kerk (Old Church)—the oldest building in Amsterdam, located in the heart of the historic city center—now serves as a venue for contemporary art. Over the centuries, the church evolved from a small wooden chapel into an expansive hall church. Today, the building is recognized as a significant national and international monument. Our program bridges the past, present, and future through an interplay between centuries-old heritage and contemporary art. At the invitation of the Oude Kerk, artists and musicians create new works—conceived specifically for this site—that can be seen or heard only here. This generates fresh perspectives on the history of the building, the world around us, and the future. Accessibility: The A10 ring road is easily and quickly accessible via the IJ-tunnel and Wibautstraat.
