Slip into the Willet-Holthuysen House, a beautifully kept canal house in central Amsterdam. Follow the audio guide through richly decorated rooms filled with Venetian glass, porcelain, paintings and antique books.
Full description
The Willet-Holthuysen House is a canal-side townhouse in Amsterdam-Centrum, kept as a museum of 19th-century domestic life. Rooms are furnished with period interiors and display Venetian glass, porcelain, weapons, paintings and rare art history books.
Visitors receive an audio guide with a card-activated system that explains the rooms and the era, and reviewers describe vibrant colours and decoration and an easy, low-key visit. It suits a calm hour away from the busier museums and works well for couples interested in design and history.

Beautiful house, had a really good time. You get an audio guide to get more in depth with the time period. Definitely worth a visit.
