Museum Het Schip shows the "Amsterdamse school" architectural style in its social, political and artistic context. Michel de Klerk - the most important and prolific Amsterdamse school architect- designed three monumental public housing blocks, called the Spaarndammerplantsoen, which brought the movement fame. The most expressionist apartment block is known as Het Schip (The Ship).
Another of these housing blocks includes a post office, resembling a huge piece of sculpture, situated at the prow of "the ship". De Klerk designed the complete interior including counters, seats, and a telephone booth. The building also features an exhibition titled 'Poste Restante, de Amsterdamse School', which answers questions such as: What were the special circumstances that turned Amsterdam into a mecca for public housing, and what is the cultural-historical value of the Amsterdam School?
Museum Het Schip also provides access to a restored working class house, the exhibition on the Amsterdam School architects' inspiration sources and an opportunity to see Michel de Klerk's world-famous tower.
