Rembrandt bought this house in 1639 and lived here until his bankruptcy in the 1650s, working in a studio on the upper floor. The museum has furnished the rooms from an inventory drawn up at that time, so you see the kitchen, the living rooms and the studio as they were. A multimedia tour guides the visit, which is short because the house is small. Etching demonstrations show how he made his prints.
What to look for
- Rembrandt's studio on the upper floor
- The cabinet of curiosities he filled with collected objects
- The etching room and its printing demonstrations
- Rooms furnished from the 1656 inventory
