The Royal Palace Amsterdam is bringing paintings to life. In the exhibition Masters of Morality. Wise Lessons from the City Palace, paintings by Ferdinand Bol, Govert Flinck and Jacob de Wit provide food for thought.

Construction started on the Royal Palace as Amsterdam's Town Hall in 1648. Originally, the rooms of the Palace were the domain of burgomasters, council members, magistrates and many others. In their offices, they had paintings above the mantelpieces by famous and less well-known master painters.

These 'mantelpiece paintings' were not just for decoration. Every story - whether from the Bible or Greek or Roman antiquity - provides a wise lesson in how a public servant should behave.

Royal Palace Amsterdam (Koninklijk Paleis)

4.8 / 5 (387 reviews)

The impressive Royal Palace Amsterdam, located on Dam Square, is one of Amsterdam's top attractions. It was built in the Dutch Golden Age as the city hall for Amsterdam. It later became a palace for the royal family, a function it still has to this day. Consequently, it's not always open to the public.

It plays a key role during State visits and it's also home to some pretty amazing 17th-century art - representing the Dutch Golden Age.

Rijksmuseum

The National Museum of the Netherlands, or the Rijksmuseum, has been housed on this location since 1885. It recently underwent a ten-year, €375 million renovation. The Rijksmuseum has over 5,000 paintings (including Rembrandt's Night Watch) and has an emphasis on the Dutch Golden Age. But it's not just paintings – there are sculptures, antiques, collections of clothing and weapons, and one of the finest actively-used libraries you'll ever see. The Dutch architect P.J.H. Cuypers designed this elegant building, and even put himself in the design as one of the statues on the roof.

Van Gogh Museum

The Van Gogh Museum displays over 200 of Vincent van Gogh's works, including landscapes, still lifes and drawings, and letters. By displaying them alongside works from Van Gogh's contemporaries, viewers get real insights into his life and work. The museum itself is comprised of two buildings. The main building, designed by Gerrit Rietveld, Joan van Dillen, and J. van Tricht, opened in 1973. The second building, designed by Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa was added in 1999. Located in Amsterdam's Museumplein (along with the Stedelijk and Rijksmuseum), the Van Gogh Museum is one of the most-visited museums in the Netherlands.

Heineken Experience

The Heineken Experience is located in the original Heineken Brewery. Gerard Adriaan Heineken bought this building back in 1863 when it was the De Hooiberg brewery. He then turned it towards the production of his eponymous beer. The building remained a brewery all the way up to 1988. It was then that it became a museum (and hotspot for Heineken consumption). Located in the vibrant neighborhood of De Pijp, the Heineken Experience is ideally situated for a canal cruise, and some city exploration that takes you away from the hustle and bustle of Dam Square. Since 2001, it's been the world-famous Heineken Experience. After a year-long update and redesign in 2008, the Heineken Experience is more Heineken-y and Experience-y than ever before.
