The Moses and Aaron Church (Dutch: Mozes en Aäronkerk, pronounced [ˈmoːzəs ɛn aːˈʔaːrɔŋkɛr(ə)k]) in the Waterlooplein neighborhood of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, is officially the Roman Catholic Church of St. Anthony of Padua (Dutch: Sint-Anthoniuskerk). Originally a clandestine church, it was operated by Franciscan priests at a house on Jodenbreestraat ("Jewish Broad Street"), where the wall tablets of Moses and Aaron hung on the wall. In 1970, the present church was designated as a Cultural Heritage Monument (Rijksmonument) of the Netherlands.
