Blenduk Church, officially known as Gereja Blenduk, is an iconic historical Protestant church located in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia. The church's distinctive dome and twin spires make it one of the most photographed landmarks in the city. Built in 1753, it is the oldest church in the province. The building showcases a unique blend of Neo-Classical and Dutch architecture. Its interior is equally impressive, with a baroque pulpit and organ believed to date back to the 18th century. The floor is adorned with tiles that create the illusion of a carpet. Stained glass windows and elegantly crafted wooden pews add to the church's visual appeal. It stands as a symbol of the city's rich multicultural history, demonstrating the Dutch colonial influence in the region. The church is not only a place of worship but also an important tourist attraction and a testament to the religious diversity and heritage of Semarang.
