Sightseeing

From Catholic basilica and Protestant stronghold to a national monument. For nearly 900 years, the Pieterskerk is the heart of Leiden. The two keys of Saint Peter are the symbol of Leiden and symbolically unlock the gates of heaven as well as the world. This symbolism is reflected in the present-day use of the Pieterskerk. A transformation from a Catholic to a Reformed Church and now a multipurpose meetingplace in a cultural and historic setting, genuine Dutch heritage.
