De Gestreelde Borst (The Stroked Breast) is a mysterious bronze sculpture embedded in the cobblestones of Amsterdam's Old Church square (Oudekerksplein) in the Red Light District. It depicts a hand caressing a woman's breast and is considered homage to the many sex workers working in the area.

Credited to an anonymous figure known as "De Onbekende Beeldhouwer (the Unknown Sculptor)," reportedly a recreational artist from the medical field.

It appeared suddenly in the middle of the city at the end of February 1993, but within a week it was removed by the government. This turned out to be easier said than done, as the sculpture was fixed to one meter's depth of concrete. There were several reasons for the removal: the sculpture was causing a lot of noise when people stepped on it, there was no permit for its placement, and its subject was deemed "inappropriate" for the middle of the Red Light District. After a public announcement that the statue would not be replaced, the sculptor presented himself at the Amsterdam Department of Art. It was decided that the statue would be returned to its place with some additional insulation to decrease the noise. The city agreed to keep the identity of the sculptor secret, and since July 1993, the sculpture can be appreciated at its original location at Oudekerksplein.
