Discover the hidden treasures
There is a remarkable building in the very heart of Utrecht. The bustle of the city centre suddenly seems very far away. The Dom Cathedral, with its towering arches and vaults, is one of the medieval churches that resemble the cathedrals that you may have seen in France or Germany. History has left its mark on both the architecture and the interior. The most drastic events were the sixteenth-century Iconoclasm and the devastating tornado of 1674, which caused the nave to collapse. That created the present-day Domplein (Cathedral Square), an open space between the church and its tower.
