About

De Duif in Amsterdam is a prestigious top-notch venue by the canal, offering a beautiful setting for events such as lectures, symposiums, dinners, and weddings. Nestled amidst the elegant residences along Prinsengracht, De Duif Church, where Jos Brink once preached, is a hidden gem. Despite its unassuming exterior, this national monument from 1857 conceals a surprisingly grand interior, featuring a striking neoclassical design.

Venue Rental
De Duif provides a stunning backdrop for various occasions, including lectures, symposiums, dinners, receptions, weddings, and even condolences. Thanks to a movable acoustic ceiling, the building is exceptionally well-suited for concerts and recitals. There's also a grand piano available. For conferences and meetings, a plenary space is available, along with several smaller rooms equipped with kitchen facilities. Additionally, De Duif serves as a uniquely beautiful wedding venue.

From 1999 to 2002, this former Roman Catholic church was meticulously restored, preserving all its authentic details while introducing modern amenities such as heating, plumbing, and catering facilities. The beautiful Smits organ dating back to 1864 has been splendidly restored and is once again on full display and in operation within the church.

Accessibility
De Duif is situated along Prinsengracht near Amstelveld (close to Utrechtsestraat) and is easily accessible by both boat and public transportation. For a detailed route description, please visit our website.
