★★★★★a month agoAmazing museum, especially if you’re planning to visit it with kids. It’s not that big indeed, but there’s always something to do there. First of all, there’s a stunning, captivating, and thrilling light show dedicated to the history of Amsterdam. The hall with interactive exhibits is simply magnificent! Very well done. I’d also like to give a special shout-out to the staff—they’re friendly, passionate, and energetic; I couldn’t help but listen to their stories. I highly recommend it!
