19:00 for19:30 Conference Dinner

The ASPECT Conference Dinner will be held at Delft’s Nieuwe Kerk. The Nieuwe Kerk in the city of Delft, in the Dutch province of South Holland, is a church building on the Markt in the center of the city. At 108.75 meters after the Dom Tower in Utrecht, the tower is the highest church tower in the Netherlands. The church is also known for the mausoleum for Willem van Oranje (William the Silent). The Nieuwe Kerk (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈniʋə ˈkɛrk]; English: New Church) is a Protestant church in the city of Delft in the Netherlands. The building is located on Delft Market Square (Markt), opposite to the City Hall (Dutch: Stadhuis). In 1584, William the Silent was entombed here in a mausoleum designed by Hendrick and Pieter de Keyser. Since then members of the House of Orange-Nassau have been entombed in the royal crypt. This splendid cathedral offers a magnificent venue for our drinks reception followed by dinner.
