MARIAPLAATS
The remains of the largest and most beautiful church in the city in a former convent garden in Utrecht.
The remains that you will see in this former convent garden, the Mariakerk, are all that remain of the largest and most beautiful church in Utrecht. Built on the initiative of Hendrik IV, around the 11th century, it was for a long time a reference in the field of architecture in Utrecht. Rembrandt himself is said to have painted and designed it and it was widely described in local literature. It was destroyed by order of Napoleon, who sold it to a developer to finance his military campaigns... A nice pump is present.
