 | The Great Saint Lawrence Church Alkmaar. Built between 1470 and 1520 in the style of Brabant gothic. Its cultural inheritance reflects its stirring history: the richly decorated wooden vault with the Final Judgement, a beautiful painting from Cornelis Buys sr above the choir area. The remarkable gravestones and the tomb of count Floris V. The fittings of the church like the choir railings and benches, the christening garden and the main altar with a copy of the tryptych of Maaerten van Heemskerck. Two famous organs: the Van Covelens or Choir organ from 1511 and the magnificent Van Hagerbeer-Schnitger or Grand organ with the largest casing doors in the world, decorated by Caesar van Everdingen. |
