Amsterdam | Netherlands

The history of Amsterdam through 100,000 works of art and artifacts, from the Middle Ages to the today

The Amsterdam Museum is a meeting place for anyone who wants to learn more about the city. Normally housed in a historic building that served as a civic orphanage, the museum tells the story of Amsterdam through its large collection of art and artifacts from Medieval times to the present. It possesses over 100,000 objects including paintings, models, archaeological finds and photographs, as well as original furnishings from the city orphanage. While its original building undergoes a major renovation, the museum has temporarily moved to a site on the Amstel river that also houses the H'ART Museum.
