Agnietenkapel (Jacob van Lennep wandeling)

On the Oudezijds Voorburgwal a little further on the odd side at no. 231 is the Agnietenkapel, the auditorium of the Athenaeum Illustre. Jacob attended law courses there from 1819. In the stained glass window of the auditorium, a portrait of his father David Jacob van Lennep can be seen, who lectured there on the classical languages. Source: Marita Mathijsen, 'Deftige circles.
