Museum Willet-Holthuysen

The three-floor mansion features period rooms with original furnishings, decorative arts, paintings, and a restored kitchen with authentic tiled walls.

Built in 1685 for Amsterdam mayor Jacob Hop, the house received its current Louis XIV facade renovation in 1739 and became a museum in 1895.

The house displays the art collection of Abraham Willet and Louisa Holthuysen, including Dutch paintings, porcelain, silver objects, and textiles from different periods.

Located at Herengracht 605, the museum opens daily from 10:00 to 17:00, with adult tickets priced at 12.50 euros and free entry for visitors under 18.

The French-style garden within the property contains plant species and landscaping patterns that reflect the horticultural preferences of wealthy 17th-century Amsterdam residents.
