Nestled along the picturesque Keizersgracht, the Museum Van Loon is a hidden gem in the heart of Amsterdam. This charming canal house museum offers visitors a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of a 17th-century banker. With its stunning architecture and beautifully preserved interiors, the museum invites you to step back in time and experience the grandeur of the Dutch Golden Age.

While the Museum Van Loon does not have a dedicated café, the surrounding area is brimming with delightful options for a post-visit treat. Just a short stroll away, you can find charming cafés and restaurants that serve traditional Dutch fare. Be sure to try the famous stroopwafels, a sweet treat made of two thin waffles filled with caramel syrup, or indulge in a hearty Dutch pancake at one of the nearby eateries. These culinary delights perfectly complement your cultural experience at the museum.

Located at Keizersgracht 672, the Museum Van Loon is perfectly situated for exploring Amsterdam's rich cultural landscape. After your visit, take a leisurely walk along the canals and discover other nearby attractions such as the Hermitage Amsterdam and the famous Rijksmuseum. The vibrant Jordaan district, known for its narrow streets and quaint shops, is also within easy reach, offering a delightful blend of history and modernity.

One of the most captivating features of the Museum Van Loon is its stunning garden, a tranquil oasis in the bustling city. The garden is beautifully landscaped and offers a serene spot to relax and reflect on your visit. Additionally, the museum often hosts temporary exhibitions that delve into various aspects of Dutch history and culture, making each visit unique.

The Museum Van Loon is renowned for its exquisite collection of 17th-century art and furniture, showcasing the opulent lifestyle of the Van Loon family.

A lovely old Amsterdam house on the "gentlemens canal"
Period furniture, there are a lot of stairs so not suitable for anyone with limited mobility.

€15 for entry? Well, that’s what it costs to peek into the life of a 17th-century banker on the Keizersgracht. You’ll explore some fancy architecture (thanks to Adriaen Dortsman) and admire a few artworks, none of which will make you rush home to Google the artist. It’s a quick, one-hour stroll through a rich family's old house. Worth it? Let’s just say, at that price, I hope the ghost of Mr. Van Loon thanks you on your way out!

Well the history of this Museum, which once was and still is to some extent a private home is quite interesting. Very wealthy people owned and contributed to the design, furnishings and ambience of the place. It is well worth a look to get an idea of a period piece of Amsterdam history.

So we have museums such as this one in Madrid, where I'm from, but the difference is that back in Madrid, a boutique museum such as this one costs around 3€ to see, when in comparison this one was a whopping 12€, with the student discount.

My main issue with it is that it has no identity and no main theme, other than nice rooms with cool wallpaper and that's about it, which makes the price completely absurd and unjustified.

That said, the gardens are beautiful and the staff was really wonderful and very accommodating.

Lovely museum with a beautiful garden (and terrace). There is an exposition at the moment where they bring the colonial past of the building and personal stories together through art. Very interesting!
