church, monument, interesting place, 15th century construction
The history of the Kloosterkerk starts around 1400 AD. Until 1572 the building was a chapel of a Dominican monastery. The church is ever since the spiritual home of a Protestant community, but is also used regularly for organ concerts and cultural events.
The Polish Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736), who became famous after inventing the mercury thermometer, was also buried in the Kloosterkerk. He died in The Hague.
