We had a lot of fun discovering all the different rooms! I also liked that you could take as many photos as you´d liked and that it was for free. We spend around 1.5 hours in here and did not find it that crowded (the time slots is a good solution). Next to that also the pink hamburger was delicious afterwards.

3. Bezoekerscentrum De Dageraad
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 17 reviews
Behind the wave-shaped facade of the famous working-class housing complex De Dageraad, you will find information about the art and architecture of the Amsterdam School. At the beginning of the last century, H.P. Berlage designed the now famous Plan Zuid. He introduced a new way of urban planning, in which there was room for wide streets, atmospheric squares and green parks. The characteristic architecture of the many Amsterdam School artists still adorns the street plan. The expressionistic facades and beautiful ornaments are recognizable throughout the neighborhood. Residential complex De Dageraad is the Amsterdam School in its purest form. Architects Michel de Klerk and Piet Kramer were commissioned to design all facets of the streetscape. In addition to the street facades, they also designed the rear facades and floor plans. This led to a form of total art in which beauty was central. Museum De Dageraad is the starting point for many walks and cycling tours in the neighbourhood.

I visited De Dageraad, the day after my visit to the Het Schip museum. This is another brilliant example of Amsterdam School architectural style. I joined the 3pm English tour which was expertly led by my two guides, who were happy to answer questions and gave a very informative tour of the social housing scheme. The 30 minute video also gives an overview of the timeline to the Amsterdam School architectural style. Highly recommended.

This museum is probably the least visited of the museums on the square. Not to be missed. It has a great collection from the late 19th century to the present. There was a special exhibition of foreign artists in Paris, with over 40 Chagall and almost as many Picasso’s from the museum’s collections. If you like “modern art” without the crowds come here b

Very educational experience, learned about a history and value of diamonds. Beautiful artifacts and prices of jewelry. You’ll see crowns, a 1 million dollar tennis racquet and high quality diamonds.
