Amsterdam Historical Museum The History of the Capital

Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 357 Amsterdam 1012 RC +31 (0)20 523 1822 http://www.ahm.nl

No less than seven centuries of Amsterdam's history is displayed in this beautiful museum: models, maps, paintings, archaeological findings and other objects trace the growth of Amsterdam from a medieval town to a modern metropolis. You can see medieval shoes and the rainbow colored umbrella of the Gay Games '98. The Civic Guard Gallery is the only public museum street in the world and shows a selection of group portraits of Amsterdam militia groups. The museum is housed in the former public orphanage. You can buy the most beautiful souvenirs in the Amsterdam Gift Shop, there is a library and in the restaurant you can get a drink and have something to eat. Review © 2009, Wcities
