Museums and galleries

Amsterdam is home to various world-famous museums, and no trip to the city is complete without stopping by the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum or Stedelijk Museum. But the city also has a multitude of quirky treasures outside of the Museum Quarter. From museums about cats and stunning photography galleries to an unusual collection of self-playing pianos - you're guaranteed to find an inspiring exhibition!
