The Cathedral of St. Martin, Utrecht, Netherlands

In the centre of Utrecht lies the Domplein (Cathedral Square), with the Cathedral of St Martin (Reformed), one of the most magnificent churches in the Netherlands (begun in 1254, completed in 1517).

This is the Dom-tower from the 13th century and is 112-meter-high. It is the tallest old church tower in the Netherlands and the symbol of the city and stands on Dom Square, the spot where Utrecht originated 2000 years ago.










The cathedral of St Martin has a picturesque cloister garden (14th-15th C.). In the centre of the beautiful cloister garden is a fountain with a bronze figure of a monk writing (1913).
