Molen De Bleeke Dood

Silodam

The Silodam is a modern apartment building located on the embankment between the Houthavens (timber docklands) and the IJ River. The striking design by MVRDV architects is reminiscent of haphazard chest of draws, thanks to the 17 different styles and colours of cladding used on the façade.

Beurs van Berlage guided tour

The Beurs van Berlage opened in 1903 and housed Amsterdam’s stock exchange. It gets its name from renowned Dutch architect Hendrik Berlage who was responsible for its design. Incorporating a range of traditional building styles, the Beurs is now considered the Netherland's most important example of 20th-century architecture.

Homomonument

Designed by Amsterdam-born artist Karin Daan in 1979, Amsterdam's  Homomonument (gay monument) was the first of its kind. It was commissioned by the Homomonument society and was officially unveiled in September 1987 at the Westermarkt.

Biblioteca Ets Haim

Amsterdam’s Ets Haim – Livraria Montesinos is the oldest Jewish library in the world, having enjoyed international acclaim since the Golden Age. The collected works of Ets Haim Library comprise over 500 manuscripts dating back to 1282 and 30,000 printed works dating back to 1484 – including works by philosopher Benedict Spinoza.

Watermolen de 1200 Roe

Water mill 1200 Roe

Not many people are aware that the city of Amsterdam has 8 windmills - one of them being Water mill 1200 Roe. This octagonal windmill was originally used to keep the Osdorperbinnenpolder swamp area dry. It had this function until around 1950, when it was no longer necessary. Water mill 1200 Roe is now owned by the city of Amsterdam and is permanently inhabited.

Moskee El Mohammadi

Trippenhuis

Trippenhuis (Trip House)

The Trippenhuis (Trip House) was built in 1666 for two wealthy brothers named Lodewijk and Hendrick Trip. At 22 metres wide, it is the most spacious residence in Amsterdam. The house was designed by Justus Vingboons, the younger brother of the better-known Philip Vingboons. The two designed a number of different houses in Amsterdam for VOC (Dutch East India Company) administrators and well-off merchants.

Kaaspakhuis de Koophandel

This traditional Dutch cheese warehouse is located along a picturesque canal in Edam and is owned by Gestam, a company that exports cheeses to several corners of the globe. Since 1916, it's been used to help mature various types of cheese. They offer tastings during certain days of the week. Check the website for details and opening hours.

The Amsterdamse Bos (Amsterdam Forest)

Located on the edge of the city, the Amsterdamse Bos (Amsterdam Forest) is Amsterdam’s largest park and recreational area. The lush forests and grassy meadows offer plenty of space for a relaxing picnic with family or friends, and the park is crossed by many kilometres of well-marked walking and cycling paths.

Flevoparkbad

The Flevoparkbad is an outdoor swimming pool located on the edge of the spacious Flevopark in Amsterdam Oost. Here you’ll find an Olympic-size (50-metre) pool for swimming laps, a much shallower pool for children, and a wading pool for toddlers.
