Sign: And what would you do?

Historical landmark

👍👍 I love this art proposal, which even, beyond a symbolic object, is an invitation to reflect to remember history. It challenges our own ability to observe ourselves in the simplest, but also most profound way to ask ourselves who we are and what actions we take (or do not take) to make humanity a pla...

Jewish Cultural District

Historical landmark

👍👍 The neighborhood itself doesn't seem particularly Jewish (whatever that means). We visited the Jewish Museum and the Portuguese Synagogue there, it was definitely worth the time :) You can learn a lot about Judaism in general and Jewish history. Audio guides are included free of charge with entry, o...

Korenmetershuis

Historical landmark

👍👍 The so-called Korenmetersgilde had its office in the Korenmetershuis for centuries. The guild contributed to the fair trade in grain, a product from which Amsterdam used to derive much of its wealth. The corn meters had the important task of checking the grain merchants' measurements. These measure...

Statue Of Joost van den Vondel

Historical landmark

👍👍 A beautiful place of a very interesting story. It is a very old neighborhood in Amsterdam, in fact the black house is the oldest, the same one that was saved from a fire and remains until now. Its catholic church camouflaged in a front facade in front of a very old Calvinist chapel. It is a very ch...

Amsterdams Lieverdje

Sculpture

👍 This is a statue of a little boy with a mischievous grin on his face and his hands on his hips. We happened to pass by as it is on Spui Square, not far from the center.

Bridge

👍👍 Very nice bridge!

Houten Huis Oldest House

Historical landmark

👍👍 The house is very unique, gothic architecture with interesting windows placement. This is one of the two wooden houses that survived a series of fires 500 years ago. This building was build approximately in 1425. Amazing to see, but it is a private residence so you can’t go inside. The enclosure cou...

De drie Hendricken

Historical landmark

🫤 Amsterdam disappointed me, it's just another city centre. People rushing and pushing not beautiful as I had pictured it stinks and there's rubbish everywhere

De Ruiter, Vreeland

Mill

Gemeenlandshuis

Historical landmark

👍 Beautiful country house that is open to the public every first Sunday of the month from 12:00 - 16:00 as part of the Hendrick de Keyser association, which strives to preserve architecturally or historically valuable buildings in the Netherlands. It is possible to celebrate a wedding here, the beauti...

National Slavery Monument

Historical landmark

👍👍 There are still people living and working in slavery, we need to remember that times can shift and not asume that civilization moves forward. We always need to stand up for freedom and fight for human rights. We can do this by looking into history and take lessons from the past. #slavery

Jonatan Frenk Memorial Bench

Historical landmark

👍👍 best bench i’ve ever sat on. Back support on this bench was supreme. Quality of the wood was very good. Three people could easily sit on it but I would say you could push it to 5 because of the sturdiness of the wood. Enjoy!
