7. Is it wheelchair accessible?

Quick answer

  • Parts of the church are wheelchair accessible, but some older sections and uneven flooring may present challenges.
De Grote of Jacobijnerkerk has varying levels of wheelchair accessibility. The main entrance and central nave are generally accessible, often featuring ramps or level access. This allows visitors in wheelchairs to experience a significant portion of the church. However, due to the historical nature of the building, some older sections, side chapels, or specific areas might have steps, narrow passages, or uneven cobblestone flooring that could pose difficulties for wheelchair users. It is advisable to contact the church directly beforehand to inquire about specific accessibility features and potential limitations, especially if you plan to explore less common areas.
