hidden in the heart of Amsterdam's city Centre is a small miracle.
Museum our Lord on Solder.
Visitors go there to discover a rare well preserved canal house from the Golden Age.
Narrow corridors and stairs lead to historically furnished living rooms, kitchens and bedsteads, to end in what is literally the highlight of the museum: a complete church in the attic.

The residential block Het Schip is a spectaculair example of twentieth-century public housing.
Because of the bright colors and extravagant design it shows more kinship with an expressionistic work of art than with traditional folk housing.
