The Nieuwe Kerk (New Church) in Delft is a significant historical and architectural landmark, renowned as the burial place of the Dutch Royal Family. It is highly accessible, located directly on the Markt square, a short walk from Delft Centraal station; however, the iconic tower climb, offering panoramic city views, involves 376 steps and is not wheelchair accessible. Visitors can explore solo with available information or opt for guided tours to gain deeper insights into its rich history, including the Royal Crypt. The church is generally open year-round, but opening hours vary seasonally, and the tower may close due to adverse weather; it's wise to check their official website. An approximate entry cost ranges from €5-€8 for adults, often with combined tickets available for the nearby Oude Kerk. A typical visit, including the tower climb, usually lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. For the best experience, consider a combined ticket with the Oude Kerk and be prepared for the rewarding but strenuous tower ascent.
