Sint-Janskerk, a stunning Gothic church located in the heart of Maastricht, was built between the 14th and 15th centuries. It is known for its unique position next to the Roman Catholic Sint-Servaas Basilica, forming a unique 'church twin' in the Netherlands. The church is dedicated to John the Baptist and features a striking 79-meter-high red tower. Visitors can explore its beautiful interiors, including a notable organ and various historical monuments. The church hosts concerts and cultural events, particularly during the annual Musica Sacra festival. Open to visitors from Easter to the end of the autumn holidays (except Sundays), it offers guided tours and the chance to climb its tower. Admission is free, making it an accessible destination for all.
