Fire destroyed 150-year-old church in Amsterdam
On New Year's Eve in Amsterdam, a fire destroyed a 154-year-old church church built in the 19th century.
On the night of December 31 to January 1, 2026, a fire destroyed the 154-year-old Vondelkerk church of Amsterdam, reports NL Times.
The fire started in the first hour of the night on the church's roof and quickly engulfed the entire building.
The Vondelkerk church was built in 1872. From its opening until 1977, it belonged to the Catholic Church. Recently, the church premises were used for hosting ceremonial events and housing small businesses.
The cause of the fire is being determined. Local media report that the church building is beyond restoration.
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that an ancient church in the Netherlands was converted into a house padel court.
