Traveler reviews
Martina Urbinati
★★★★★3 months agoLittle gem in an historic building along the canals. The two modern monks (plus Darwin) have put together this Wunderkammer. We saw the temporary expo about the dinosaurs- absolutely fascinating. Worth a visit!
Jenn McDermott
★★★★★a month agoThe most unique museum in downtown Amsterdam! My 4 and 7 year olds were very engaged with the audio tour, which made the experience enjoyable for the whole family. All of the information is provided through the audio guide, which is a modern way to explore the exhibits. Still, I wish there were printed labels alongside the collections, as they would make it easier to quickly reference details while viewing the displays.
