Koepelkerk

Koepelkerk (aka Dome Church) is a stunningly beautiful church located in Willemstad, Netherlands. It is one of the oldest churches in the area and has an ornate interior adorned with colourful frescoes and patinas.

The church was designed by Dutch architect Daniel Marot and the cupola was designed by French architect Constantinus Regnault. Inside the church stands a beautiful spiral staircase which takes visitors to a balcony above the main altar. The church also has a huge pipe organ and a 3.75 metres high monument to the military commander of Willemstad, Michea Tjerkama.
