Mayflower Church

Many people do not even know that it exists, but in Amsterdam at the “Begijnehof” stands a British Reformed Church, built in 1607. It has the name “The Mayflower Church” or “The Pilgrim Church,” because in 1620 the “Pilgrim Fathers” (also called “the Puritans”) gathered here before they left for America. Their leader was Robert Browne, the ship, the well-known Mayflower.
