The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam is the national museum of the Netherlands, dedicated to art, history, and culture. Housed in an impressive building designed by Pierre Cuypers, the museum displays over 8,000 objects, including world-famous paintings by Dutch masters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Frans Hals.

One of the absolute highlights is Rembrandt’s Night Watch, an iconic painting that holds a central place in the Gallery of Honour. Here you’ll also find Vermeer’s Milkmaid, Rembrandt’s Jewish Bride, and many other works that bring the Dutch Golden Age to life.

Besides paintings, the Rijksmuseum offers a wide collection of artefacts, weapons, ship models, porcelain, and historical objects that tell the story of the Netherlands through the ages. From the Middle Ages to the 20th century – every era is represented.

The museum combines classical beauty with modern amenities. Through audio tours, interactive displays, and temporary exhibitions, your visit becomes a dynamic experience. For children, there are treasure hunts and creative workshops.

The museum garden, with sculptures, fountains, and art installations, is also worth exploring. After your visit, you can relax in the museum café or take home a souvenir from the museum shop.

Located at the Museumplein, alongside other cultural highlights like the Van Gogh Museum and the Stedelijk Museum, the Rijksmuseum offers a journey through Dutch art and history – an experience not to be missed.
