What you need to know
- No elevator, 376 steps through narrow stairwells, so it suits kids with good stamina who aren't claustrophobic or scared of heights
- Tower tickets sold on-site, because high wind can close the tower; an online church ticket can be topped up with the climb at the desk
- Backpacks go in a locker in the shop before you climb, and umbrellas, food and drink aren't allowed up the tower
About
The Nieuwe Kerk tower is 108.75 meters tall, the second-highest church tower in the Netherlands. Kids climb 376 steps up narrow stairs to a gallery at 85 meters, where on a clear day you can see Rotterdam and The Hague.
The carillon in the tower plays a tune every quarter hour. It suits kids with steady legs who don't mind heights or tight spaces.
