Your Experience

Go on a journey in a unique, well-preserved canal house from the 17th century. Narrow corridors and stairs will lead you to historically decorated living quarters, kitchens, and bedsteads, ending in the highlight of the museum: a complete church in the attic.

The Chapel's History

The chapel in the attic was commissioned by the wealthy Catholic merchant, Jan Hartman, at a time when it was forbidden to practice the Catholic faith in public spaces. Former Catholic churches and monasteries had been confiscated and were being used for Protestant worship. Catholics had to seek alternatives and henceforth celebrate Mass in hidden house churches.

Accessibility & Inclusivity

A visit to the 17th-century canal house and the church in the attic involves climbing a lot of narrow stairs, making the property not equally accessible for everyone. However, the museum cafe, shop, and temporary exhibition space are easily accessible, located in the entrance building with elevator access. An adapted toilet is available here.

From a specially set up area, visitors can take a virtual tour of the museum while their guide takes a tour of the monument. For deaf and hearing-impaired visitors, the text of the regular audio tour is available on paper. There is also a special guided tour for small groups of blind and visually impaired visitors.

The accompanier of visitors with a disability does not need to buy a ticket. Discover this unique museum and enjoy a free audio guide available in various languages: Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, and Russian.
