No St Matthew Passion in Naarden

In the 1970’s, the Grote Kerk in Naarden underwent extensive restoration. The annual performance of the St Matthew Passion was therefore forced to move to Monnickendam in 1970.

In 1972, the St Matthew Passion was performed in the Grote Kerk in Naarden again, although the church was still covered in scaffolding.
