With this combination ticket, you can explore both the historic roots and the modern creativity that define the Dutch capital.
After cruising through the beautiful 17th-century canals, step straight into the present at the STRAAT Museum, located in Amsterdam’s creative epicentre north of the IJ river at the former NDSM Wharf. This unique pairing takes you on a journey from past to present and offers excellent value—exactly the kind of smart, money-saving experience you want on a city trip.
A museum for street art and graffiti
The STRAAT Museum is unlike any other museum in Amsterdam. Yet, just like the masterpieces once displayed in the Rijksmuseum, the art shown here has the power to influence culture far beyond the city. The collection is constantly evolving, with rotating exhibitions and new works being added regularly. If you time your visit right, you may even see artists creating new pieces live inside the museum.
All artworks on display are created specifically for STRAAT, representing the global street art and graffiti movement. The setting couldn’t be more fitting: an 8,000 m² industrial warehouse that is as raw, bold, and uncompromising as the art itself—inside and out.
