Simply
incredible.Very
interactive
and
educational.At
the
register
they
give
you
a
little
device
that
provides
you
with
a
voice
guided
tour.In
every
third/fourth
room
there’s
a
short
video
clip
on
a
constant
loop.All
of
those
short
movies
show
you,in
order
of
the
timeline
of
events,the
history
and
struggles
of
jews
in
the
20th
century.The
museum
not
only
tells
about
Jew
History
in
The
Netherlands,but
lots
about
WW2
as
well
and
the
Dutch-Indonesian
colonies.There
are
depicted
stories
of
jews,dutch,germans,soldiers,prisoners,escapees.
The
museum
overall
is
small,but
it
personally
took
me
2h.
40m.
to
view
EVERYTHING
and
take
it
all
in.Although
everyone
says
1h
or
so
is
enough,i
don’t
think
so,after
all
you’re
there
to
learn
and
experience,not
to
sightsee.The
staff(which
is
only
present
on
the
register,as
you’re
digitally
guided)was
extremely
friendly
and
polite,they
spoke
perfect
english
and
offered
me
a
guide
in
7+
languages.
There’s
a
locker
room
space
where
you
can
put
your
belongings
-
you
can’t
enter
with
anything
on
you.I
went
on
a
Tuesday
at
4pm
and
there
were
plenty
of
people,but
it
was
easy
to
pass
through
and
get
around.I
wouldn’t
recommend
visiting
on
a
holiday
or
a
weekend
though,as
the
place
is
narrow
and
small
itself
and
a
lot
of
people
bumping
into
each
other
would
be
an
inconvenience.No
pre-reservation
needed,I
bought
my
ticket
directly
from
the
register,but
I’d
check
the
availability
before
going
in.
I
definitely
recommend.It’s
a
museum
with
a
lot
of
work,dedication
and
respect
put
in
