Week of Accessibility
From Monday, October 6th to Sunday October 12th, it is the Week of Accessibility. The Museum of the Canals is a wheelchair-friendly museum, and therefore we are happy to participate in this initiative. Throughout this entire week, the Museum of the Canals offers free admission to wheelchair users and their companions.
Although we are wheelchair accessible, there is always room for improvement, and we welcome feedback from our visitors on what we can further enhance. At the end of the visit, we ask participants for feedback.
Free city walk from Tassie
Do you want to learn more about Amsterdam after visiting the Grachtenmuseum and explore the city up close? The canals of Amsterdam are full of history and unique stories. The free city walk from Tassie takes you to 16 different locations along the canals. You’ll discover fascinating stories about people, history, art, and architecture.
The tour begins at the Grachtenmuseum and lasts around 2 to 3 hours. During the walk, you will not only learn more about the city, you will also get to know each other a little better. Each story comes with a question for you both to answer.
The canal tour is completely free, and you can walk independently using the Tassie app. Simply download the app, create an account, and unlock your free tour by searching for “Grachtenmuseum.” Reexplore the historic city center and see Amsterdam in a whole new way.
Will you join us on a scavenger hunt?
Ga op speurtocht in de Andriessenzaal van het Grachtenmuseum in Amsterdam. Kinderen kunnen in het museum op speurtocht gaan door onze Andriessenzaal. Deze kamer is vernoemd naar de maker van de muurschilderingen: Jurriaan Andriessen. Ga mee op speurtocht door deze kamer, met hulp van Benjamin, de hond van Jurriaan Andriessen. Als teckel is Benjamin de beste in het opspeuren van verstopte, kleine bijzonderheden. Hij weet alles te vinden in de Andriessenzaal. Lukt jou dit ook? 🔎
Vraag de speurtocht bij de balie en speuren maar! Als je klaar bent kun je hier ook de antwoorden controleren.
