    Wonderful tiny typical Dutch Hofje hidden within Amsterdam's Jordaan area. Calm and pleasant haven located nearby the City-center, in Egelantiersgracht. The Sint Andrieshofje isn't easy to find at first sight, but is definitely worth looking for.

    Google says it's a park. It ain't. It's a tiny courtyard surrounded by houses where people live who don't really appreciate gawking tourists loudly talking. There are plenty of such courtyards in this district, and this isn't the most interesting of them. Pop in to have a look if you want, but keep your voice down, and don't stare in people's windows. They don't want tourists sitting in their garden either. There's a bench by the canal you can sit on.

    It's nice if you're nearby/corner anyway - in my opinion it's not worth a major detour through Amsterdam

  • 5/5 Luc 1 year ago on Google • 592 reviews
    A typical example of Amsterdam to help you discover, at the bend of an anonymous door, places of inner peace, a haven of tranquility and respect for the collective and a fair society

    Well worth popping into if you're passing. Please note there isn't much at all to this attraction so it may not be worth making a trip out this way without a solid desire to see it. The entrance looks a little hidden, but basically if you find a big door with Sint Andrieshofje on it, you've got the right one. Good information on a plaque once inside.

    Beautiful

  • 1/5 Hervé C. 9 months ago on Google • 188 reviews
    I went there and the door was closed. In short, something to do once you know the rest of the city by heart and... with a little luck

    You must visit if you visit Amsterdam

  • 5/5 Evan S. 4 years ago on Google • 22 reviews
    This is a great spot to view a garden between the buildings. You can't walk around or sit on the benches unless you live in the surrounding buildings, but the view is still worth it.

  • 5/5 Thorsten P. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Located in the middle of the Jordaan district, it is an insider's tip. This Hofje was once donated by a cattle dealer and is relatively small, but still take a look inside, as long as the door is open. (Original) Liegt mitten im Stadtviertel Jordaan und stellt quasi einen Geheimtipp dar. Dieser Hofje wurde einst von einem Viehhändler gestiftet und ist relativ klein, aber trotzdem einen Blick hineinwerfen, sofern die Türe offen ist.

    Walked all the way over here only to find the door locked, even though the sign on the door said it was open.
