Van Gogh & Rembrandt + Rijksmuseum

Luglio ad Amsterdam

Museo molto ben organizzato. Un po' caro ma ne è valsa la pena. Per i minori di 18 anni è gratuito. Audioguide a pagamento ma si può scaricare il link ufficiale e usare il cellulare come audioguida. Tra gli autori più importanti Rembrand e un auto ritratto di Van gog.

Tappa obbligatoria ad Amsterdam

L’ immensità e la bellezza di questo posto conserva opere di inestimabile valore, curato nella presentazione, ogni visitatore può ricevere la visita guidata audio con cuffiette a un prezzo ragionevole che spiega tutte le opere e le loro peculiarità. Sedute lungo tutto il percorso permettono di fermarsi a contemplare le opere , un posto magico

Se dovete sciogliere di visitare un solo museo ad Amsterdam e’ questo.

Questa è la terza volta che vengo ad Amsterdam ed è la terza volta che lo visito. La Ronda di Notte ( la Guardia Civica in Marcia) è uno dei miei quadri preferiti e vederlo in fondo alla grande galleria principale toglie il fiato… purtroppo è in restauro con una impalcatura che lo copre. Per il resto le collezioni di mobili , piatti, armi , la sezione delle Compagnia delle Indie Orientali, la pinacoteca sono strepitosi. Non ho visitato il terzo piano e la sezione dell’arte asiatica, ma il complesso è vastissimo.

immensa

Museo immenso, la galleria del secolo d'oro è meravigliosa, gli spazi sono ampi e si possono ammirare le opere in tranquillità nonostante le numerose persone. all'ingresso si può prendere una piantina per decidere cosa vedere, perché ci si potrebbe passare dentro una giornata. Shop molto ben fornito con prodotti interessanti.

Un museo davvero variegato!

Un bellissimo museo, ricco di opere d’arte e ben organizzato: da quadri importanti a opere in ceramica, pianoforte, veliero, casa delle bambole e tantissime altre cose. Una visita è obbligatoria per chi soggiorna ad Amsterdam.

Da non perdere

Grande e magnifico museo che racchiude la produzione pittorica olandese dal 1100 ai giorni nostri, compresi alcuni quadri di Van Gogh, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Goya, ecc. Conviene acquistare il biglietto online onde evitare code ed accedere direttamente; dal piano interrato dove si trovano il guardaroba, il ristorante e lo shop si diramano le sale suddivise per periodo storico, Le opere sono facilmente fruibili nonostante la grande quantità di visitatori poiché le sale sono grandi e ben organizzate, Meglio prendere una mappa prima di iniziare la visita perché è facile perdersi date le dimensioni dell’edificio.

Rijksmuseum, il tesoro di Amsterdam

Museo ampio e ricco di cose da vedere, con varie sezioni tematiche. Per goderselo al meglio conviene dedicargli una buona parte di giornata.

Bel museo

Museo molto ampio, all'interno ha delle opere molto belle e che meritano di essere visitate. Dopo aver superato i controlli c'è la possibilità di lasciare borse e zaini in armadietti chiusi, molto comodi a mio parere. Bisogna fare attenzione a prenotarsi per un'orario, quando sono andato mi hanno fatto entrare lo stesso ma nei giorni con grande affluenza potrebbero non farvi entrare.

Bellissima esperienza

Esperienza bellissima e assolutamente da non perdere ad Amsterdam per chi ama l'arte e la cultura di questa meravigliosa città

tappa obbligata

Tappa obbligata di ogni visita ad Amsterdam : oltre ai capolavori di Veermeer, Rembrandt e van Gogh, custododisce autentici tesori dell'arte fiammiga/Olandese.

Molto bello

Museo molto bello pieno di opere interessanti che attraversano varie epoche e stili, unica nota dolente, l’ho trovato un po’ dispersivo

Iconico Rijksmuseum

Museo bellissimo, pieno di opere dei principali pittori olandesi. Grazie all audio guida siamo riusciti a conoscere artisti ed opere bellissime. Il Rijksmuseum,è una delle attrazioni imperdibili di Amsterdam . Visitandolo si ripercorre 800 anni di storia olandese. Chiaramente i capolavori di Vermeer, Rembrandt e Van Gogh sono i più visti ed i più emozionanti, ma ci sono una quantità di opere d’arte che non bastano 5 ore per ammirarle. Ve lo consiglio é impossibile restare delusi. Facile da raggiungere tramite tram o con una bella camminata.

Un museo da visitare

Museo ben organizzato e architettonicamente molto bello! Rappresenta 800 anni di storia olandese attraverso opere e oggetti

Fantastico!

La visita richiede almeno 4-5 ore di tempo. Bellissimo e interessante non solo la parte relativa a Rembrandt, Verneer e Van Gogh, ma anche la parte medievale e, a piano terra, la parte di gioielli, abiti e porcellane. Unico neo è stata la non sempre chiara logica di percorrenza delle stane museali. Avvertenza: occorre prenotare l'orario di ingresso online.

Un museo per intenditori, ben organizzato. Consiglio di scaricare l’app con audio guida di tutti i quadri esposti

Museo enorme, ricco di opere. Per vedere le più famose ci vogliono un paio d’ore. Per gli intenditori almeno una giornata!!!

Incanto e bellezza da secoli e per secoli

Bello. Bello. BELLO. Tutto del Museo è un "wow" che ti esce spontaneamente dal cuore. L'edificio antico. Le sue integrazioni moderne. L'organizzazione estremamente fluida e senza sforzo da un piano di periodo artistico all'altro. Le collezioni. I capolavori di Rembrandt e Vermeer. La parte di reperti storici che narrano la grande storia commerciale dell'Olanda (la fissata di storia & arte che sono gongola quando le due cose così naturalmente si mescolano quindi immaginatemi FELICE al top mentre giravo per il Rijks). Ma da brava Italiana (e fiorentina) già le opere di tardo medioevo e primo rinascimento Italiano, i magnifici vetri veneziani, le opere dei primi fiamminghi in dialogo con i nostri artisti del 400 mi hanno lasciata incantata. Il Museo semplicemente VA VISTO. E come mi sono accorta capita sempre in Olanda, ogni visita è sorprendente e "facile" per la bravura che hanno in ogni frangente gli olandesi di organizzare tutto benissimo senza fartelo "pesare". Sembrano non esserci, tanto è facile capire come è organizzato il museo, ma se hai bisogno come per magia "arrivano" e ti risolvono i problemi con grande efficacia e sempre con un bel sorriso accogliente e disponibile. TOP.

Perdersi tra i fiamminghi!

Museo d'arte da non perdere! L'edificio è molto grande, ci sono due entrate ma è indifferente il lato dal quale si inizia: al quarto piano si può passare da un'ala all'altra senza uscire dalla struttura. I piani sono suddivisi per secoli. È obbligatorio prenotare online selezionando un orario d'entrata, anche se si possiede una card turistica (ad esempio I Amsterdam Card), consiglio di prenotare all'apertura, più tardi diventa affollato. Qui sono esposte moltissime opere, forse meno blasonate di altri musei europei, ma ci sono diverse chicche come Carracci, Van Gogh, Vermeer, Rembrandt e una vasta selezione di fiamminghi. Al momento della mia visita (maggio 2024) era presente una bellissima exhibition di Frans Hals! Non dimenticate di dare uno sguardo dall'alto sulla biblioteca, imponente! Ci sono aree dedicate anche all'arte più contemporanea, arte orientale, modellini navali e tanto altro. Guardaroba gratuito. Entrata gratuita (con prenotazione) con I Amsterdam Card. Durata della visita con comodo: 4 ore.

... fantastico...

... inutile descrivere le opere d'arte ospitate nel museo ... le trovate tutte sul web ... quello che posso suggerire è di acquistare i biglietti on-line per risparmiare tempo sulla fila che comunque anche nel periodo di maggio non era notevole ed era gestita molto bene con due ingressi ... per le opere principali troverete dei fogli plastificati che descrivono l'opera anche nei suoi dettagli e che permettono di ammirarne le parti più interessanti ... ovviamente questi fogli sono soltanto in lingua olandese ed inglese ... altro accorgimento è quello di selezionare preventivamente le opere da vedere ... è un museo enorme e bellissimo ma richiederebbe intere giornate per approfondirlo ... selezionare le opere principali ed individuare le sale in cui si trovano richiederà almeno un un paio d'ore si trarra delle opere suggerite dal museo stesso sul proprio sito ...

Bello ma male organizzato nel flusso

Interessante, ma l'organizzazione con periodo fino al 1600 al piano 0, 1700-1800 al piano 2, post 1800 al piano 1 non è proprio logica. Il percorso è numerato per stanze, ma, se si inizia da metà, per andare alla stanza 1 bisogna scendere e risalire di un piano. Le luci non sono sempre adeguate all'illuminazione dei quadri. L'ambiente è bello e con molti bagni e armadietti o consegna zaini con molto personale, però un museo si giudica non solo da questo e dalle opere contenute, ma anche dalla facilità di fruizione.

Come perdersi nella Bellezza!

E'un monumento all' arte in forme tradizionali. Museo molto ricco di testimonianze artistiche di secoli addietro con un focus speciale su i fasti del 600 in Olanda. Da non perdere la sezione piano terra/ marina!!! Il museo ospita mostre temporanee di artisti di fama ( nel 23 vermeer, nel 24 hals) : le sole mostre valgono il viaggio. Consiglio due visite data la mole di quanto esposto.. Aggiungo però poca attenzione ai visitatori " terza età", prese per pc a terra quando ci sono, personale non particolarmente empatico. Ristorante, caro, in testa.

Imperdibile

Imperdibile questo museo da vedere assolutamente, capolavori ben esposti. Struttura meravigliosa, ben organizzata

Bellissimo museo

Museo enorme e, per certi versi, dispersivo. Di certo, però, uno dei musei più belli sia per la struttura che per le collezioni esposte. Interessante e affascinante. C'è davvero molto da vedere e a volte ci si perde. Da non perdere.

Da non perdere.

Parliamo del museo che raccoglie la storia dell’Olanda. Non solo arte pura, ma reperti e documenti per capire meglio la storia culturale e coloniale di questa nazione. Bella la struttura, magico il percorso, non basta un giorno per vedere tutta la collezione che spazia da quadri ad arredamento a icone a strumenti musicali. Imperdibili i pezzi di Vermeer & Rembrandt. Tappa immancabile.

ottima

la struttura già di per sè è favolosa, l'ingresso a orari rende possibile la visita senza la presenza di troppa folla, ultimo ingresso (almeno in inverno) è alle 15.30 ma sconsiglio detto orario perchè chiude alle 17 e occorrono almeno tre ore per vederlo bene in quanto sono tre piani di cui il secondo è favoloso per la presenza dei quadri più famosi di Rembrandt e Vermer, ma è consigliabile anche il primo piano per la presenza di quadri altrettanti famosi e oggetti e reliquie di una bellezza assoluta Consiglio di procurarsi la mappa del museo dove sono indicate le stanze e la ubicazione delle opere più importanti per facilitare la visita

MAESTOSO E SNERVANTE

FARAONICO.E' veramente magnifico sia all' interno che all' esterno ma se si vuole vedere nel giusto modo non basta una giornata.Troppo grande è snervante..

Probabilmente il meglio di Amsterdam

Il prezzo consistente non potrebbe essere più giustificato: il Rijksmuseum sarebbe bellissimo anche qualora si disprezzasse la pittura, anche solo per la variegata esposizione di arredamento olandese del "secolo d'oro", i reperti di un controverso passato coloniale, l'affaccio sulla meravigliosa biblioteca e molto altro. Il museo è davvero un condensato di tutto ciò che l'impero olandese, così difficile da individuare nella sua potenza in una capitale così deliziosamente dimessa come è Amsterdam, ha realizzato nel suo "secolo d'oro" e oltre. Il pezzo forte, però, sono naturalmente i ben tre piani di pittura, dai maestri italiani del Rinascimento a Van Gogh, con un focus particolare (e naturale) sui maestri del '600 olandese. Sarà per il temporaneo restauro della "Ronda di notte", ma io ho apprezzato ancor di più gli incredibili Vermeer, piccoli quadri che raccontano un'umanità dimessa con giochi di luce e espressioni irripetibili, o schizzano in maniera memorabile una stradina di Delft. Ma tutto il corridoio in cui sono contenuti ha un livello medio altissimo, che giustifica bene la folla (pure mai eccessiva, grazie ai larghissimi spazi del museo). Tutti e tre i piani valgono ampiamente una visita approfondita, che prenderà probabilmente un'intera giornata.

Da non perdere

Bellissimo museo, assolutamente da visitare ad Amsterdam per la ricchezza delle opere presenti. Raccomando la prenotazione online per evitare di non poter entrare.

Una giornata full of art!

Dedicategli il tempo che ci vuole. Il Rijksmuseum è ricco di opere che attraversano i secoli fino ai giorni nostri. Si tratta di un viaggio che spazia dalla pittura alla sezione navale fino alla ceramica, alle armi, ai gioielli, il tutto secondo un filo conduttore storico. Per apprezzare è necessaria una guida, cartacea o audio. Una collezione davvero ammirevole. La dritta: il museo è in un bellissimo palazzo non solo da visitare ma anche da vivere grazie alla presenza di servizi alla persona come l'area pic-nic. Splendidi anche i giardini esterni.

4 ore di visita non bastano

Da dermarsi giorni e giorni .. bellissimo, super organizato in famiglia e no. Da visitare come museo piu importsnte …..

Grande e bello

Grande, tanto, come deve essere un museo nazionale. Tante sale, tanto da vedere, come sempre accade in questi casi, anche troppo. Concentratevi su “quello che volete vedere”, se vi interessa qualcosa da vedere, sennò può essere dispersivo. Qui ci sono pezzi (quadri e non solo) assolutamente da vedere. Merita certamente una visita. Costoso, come del resto tutto qui ad Amsterdam.

Rijksmuseum

un museo ampio e grande , ci sono tantissimi quadri famosi e meno famosi ma sono belissimi, una essperienza molto ricca,bigletti ho aqustato in anticipo online, da visitare❤️🇳🇱

FULL IMMERSION

Museo davvero eccezionale, ricchissimo di opere d'arte. Assolutamente imperdibile. Forse un po' caro ma ne vale assolutamente la pena. Consigliatissimo

Il Rijksmuseum - Ampi spazi opere magnifiche - Guida multimediale

Contrariamente a quanto sperimentato per altre attrazioni siamo riusciti a prenotare online la visita il giorno prima. Visita assolutamente consigliata, ampi spazi che consentono la visita anche quando il museo è molto affollato. Eccellente la guida multimediale georeferenziata (con posizione delle opere e del visitatore durante il tour). Basta scaricare la app sullo smartphone e utilizzare le cuffie. Mi permetto di evidenziare un percorso storico che fa un po' saltellare avanti e indietro nel tempo ... . Appena sufficienti 2 ore per vedere le principali opere.

MARAVILLOSO

Uno de mis museos favoritos. Me encantó!!!! Obvio que mucha obra quackera. Sus porcelanas de Delf. Fui 2 veces porque no queria perderme (en lo posible) nada. Me gusta tomar o almorzar algo en los cafés de los museos. Este es muyyy moderno. Y del shop ni hablar, queria traerme todo de recuerdo

Wow!!!

What a place!!!! Entered around 12.30 and grabbed a bite to eat at their restaurant.What a lovely meal it was to! Set us up nicely for a very long slow stroll around Not too busy or hot, an amazing building in itself mevermind the beautiful artwork. Absolutely loved every minuit of it! Defo recommend!!

Don't miss it

This was my third visit in 10 years. It's a wonderful museum. Do grab an audio tour set. You won't be disappointed. And if you're there between July 13 and September 14, 2025, be sure to see Fiona Tan's show Monomania...one of the best and most interesting multimedia shows I've seen in a very long time. For context, I live in NYC and close to Santa Fe.

A beautiful labyrinth

This museum reminds me of the Louvre in the sense that it’s very big, I never know where I’m going and how to get to the start of an exhibition and I am constantly terrified of going through the wrong door and accidentally leaving the museum. Other than that it was beautiful, if a bit overcrowded. This place is a bit of a maze so if you’re unsure of where to go ask for help. There are tons of lockers and even a cloackroom. There are many bathrooms and elevators to get to where you’re wanting to go. All in all it’s a beautiful museum, if a bit confusing. It has beautiful art pieces and with the European Youth Card I got a reduced price for the entry which is was very happy about.

Can't wait to return

Rembrandt. I saw The Night Watch behind glass still fantastic. I think they were working on it because of the scaffolding. Van Gogh, everything was spectacular. Wear your track shoes and the interactive system needs refining. Overall. Beautiful.

Ein kulturelles Highlight

Für uns eines der besten Museen. Nicht überladen, ausgewählte Stücke. Dafür logisch angeordnet und gut erklärt Nicht was man sieht, sondern was den Künstler oder das Werk zu einer Besonderheit macht. Man wird, besonders mit der Gratis-App auf extrem interessante Details hingewiesen. Damit wird das Betrachten eines Kunstwerks auch für "Laien" ein lehrreiches Erlebnis.

A Must-Visit for Art Lovers – Stunning Masterpieces!

Rijksmuseum houses an incredible collection of Dutch art and history, with highlights including Rembrandt’s iconic The Night Watch (De Nachtwacht). Seeing this masterpiece up close was awe-inspiring—the scale and the detail. Beyond Rembrandt, I also discovered beautiful works by Anton Mauve, whose serene landscapes captured the Dutch countryside perfectly, and the striking Mannerist paintings of Cornelis Cornelisz van Haarlem. The variety of styles and eras showcased here makes the museum a treasure trove for art enthusiasts. The building itself is stunning, with grand halls and excellent curation. The audio guide was helpful for deeper insights, and the layout made it easy to navigate. My only suggestion would be to arrive early to avoid crowds, especially around the famous pieces. Whether you're an art lover or just curious about Dutch culture, the Rijksmuseum is a must-see in Amsterdam. I’d highly recommend it!

Don’t miss this museum . Worth the money

We are so pleased we prioritized this museum during our 3 day visit to Amsterdam. We thoroughly enjoyed it and learned a lot about Dutch artists and history. Our favorite was seeing the Night watch by Rembrandt under restoration. It was fascinating to watch the restoration artists at work. The building itself is also interesting. A few tips: 1. Book to go early. We went at 9am and the crowds were greater by 11am 2. Download the app and take earbuds. It helps you navigate and makes for a more engaging experience 3. Allow st least 2 hrs. We were there for 3 hrs.

Värt ett besök!

En regnig söndag valde vi att gå på Rijksmuseum. Trodde det skulle vara jättelånga köer men kom in förvånansvärt fort. Mycket att titta på, och timmarna gick fort.

Amazing History of the Netherlands Awaits You Here

I visited with family and friends on the recommendation of a colleague. I had no idea what to expect. The museum is actually overwhelming because there is so much there. You really need more than one visit to take it all in. You definitely get a comprehensive view of Dutch history when you visit. The building itself is beautiful, and the exhibits are great. There are stunning stained glass windows in the great hall.

Great bit of culture to balance less cultural activities in Amsterdam

We went a little late in the day at 3.30 to find it shut at 5pm. It was worth going to see the iconic paintings. Well worth a trip. Free lockers which which was helpful.

Great for a rainy day

If you get there early enough, you’ll be able to cruise along all the rooms with tranquility. For people like me, who get tired easily, you will be glad to hear that there is plenty of seating for you to rest your legs. We had a few drinks and some bitterballen at the cafe and had a great time & took nice pics.

An Amsterdam must do!

Really enjoyed my visit to the Netherlands' most visited museum. A lot of visitors make a straight beeline to this world famous museum and it's easy to see why. You get to see the most renowned works from the world renowned Dutch Masters. If you really appreciate art, you'll probably need about half a day at least to fully take in the contrasting amounts of works. I saw the majority of the works in the three hours I had but I ending missing the Asian Pavillion, but I did see the highlights including Rembrandt van Rijn's Night Watch(under renovation at the time of this review, I was just grateful enough to see it) and Johannes Vermeer's Milkmaid. Try and get there as early as you can, as it is well busier in the afternoon. But if you book online as I did, you are given an hour's slot to make it to the museum. Visited the cafe too and whilst service can be a little slow the busier it gets, it is a fine way to rest weary legs and recharge and despite the prices, is a little less pricier than the restaurant, but I did visit on a Monday when the Rijks restaurant is closed. Shop moderately priced too. I didn't have time to pay a visit to the gardens, but they're free to visit anytime when the museum is open. Thoroughly recommend going round at your own pace, either by downloading the Rijksmuseum app or by spending €6.50(at the time of review) hiring an audio guide. You have more time to appreciate the works than any tour guide can give you. On selected works you simply type in the number provided into the app or screen and you get a personal commentary Can't recommend the Rijksmuseum enough when coming to Amsterdam

Excellent

Second visit to this hugely popular museum with a massive collection of exhibits on display over four levels. Along with the gift shop and cafe this is a great place to spend a few hours. You’ll need more than a day to fully appreciate the whole collection as after two separate visits, one all day and one just a third of a day, I still haven’t fully seen all of the first floor. Looking forward to completing the lot sometime again soon. The images are only from one of the many many rooms to view

Helemaal de moeite waard!

Goede ervaring. Van nature nou niet een kunstliefhebber. Maar ik wilde werken van de grote Nederlandse kunstschilders eens zien. Een enorme verzameling in het Rijksmuseum, waar je zeker minimaal 2-3 uur voor kunt uittrekken om het rustig maar gestaag te doorlopen. Het is het entreegeld méér dan waard. Tijdens het zien van de schilderijen leer je ook nog over de NL-geschiedenis met de teksten die erbij staan.

Worth a stop during your visit!

Caught the train from city center to visit a local market. We were close enough to walk to Rijks to check it out as well. I strongly suggest buying tickets online in advance to make entry easier. Buying tickets on site is just from people standing outside no true ticket booths or anything. The interior layout is not what I expect from a museum. Most places have a layout that promotes walking in an order to see everything. Here it is easy to miss exhibits if you don't check every nook and cranny of a floor. If your into art this museum will probably be amazing. I am not into art though and just wanted the experience. I would not suggest the attached cafe for food. Service wasn't great, food was very overpriced and sub par.

Highly Recommend

Rembrandt and Van Gogh. How could you go wrong? Broad range of art and artifacts very well presented. I have now managed to knock off several of the world’s greatest art museums and the Rijksmuseum is among the best.

A must see experience

An amazing experience. It is in a beautiful massive church which is still used on Sundays for mass. The light display and auditory accompaniment of Van Goghs letters made it a wonderful show. You can sit on chairs or lie on bean bags put on the floor. Employees are friendly and it is well worth going to see. Thank you Van Gogh and Rembrandt

100% worth it

The show was amazing! Very nice portrayal of Van Gogh and Rembrandts art, totally worth it! The show was about 40 minutes long, perfect duration. Shout out to Gustavo, super nice guy!

Amazing experience!

It was a amazing experience! The church was very special with the projection of moving pitcures en sound. With the best host: Gustavo!

Absolutely Amazing Experience

Absolutely fabulouse experience highly recommend. We managed to get the floor beanbags so it was also relaxing ... The location of the old church also added to the experience.

Amazing lights and sound

Absolutely wonderful experience, was in awe of the lights and sounds. It taking place in the church too made it even more mesmerizing! 10/10 would recommend, and Bruno was a star!

Experiencia distinta e inusual !!!

Mis hijos (guías) nos invitaron a ver esta versión de las obras de Van Gogh y Rembrandt hacia allí fuimos, luego de un día bastante agotador de largas caminatas. La sorpresa cuando entramos y era una iglesia, ahí nos explicaron que eran imágenes de las obras, mucha, mucha gente joven nos sentíamos fuera del entorno, decidimos sentarnos en los bancos de la iglesia mientras la enorme mayoría se acostaba en almohadones en el piso. Inicio en hora, buen ambiente, buena música, imágenes en las paredes y techo ahí me percaté porqué los jóvenes elegían el piso, me resultó difícil poder acompañar el inglés con las imágenes, pero una linda experiencia. Para quienes tenemos una idea clara de los artistas es una puesta al día muy interesante, a bajo costo distinta e inusual !!!

Beautiful Experience at the Van Gogh and Rembrandt Museums in amsterdam ✨️

The show was absolutely beautiful and inspiring — a true celebration of art and history. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the visit. The overall atmosphere was calm and well-organized. One small suggestion: I would love to see more seating areas in the central spaces to relax and take in the art more comfortably. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Amsterdam — a must-see experience!

More restrictive than other immersive experiences, but if you are a Rembrandt or Van Gogh fan, still enjoyable!

We entered the darkened church sanctuary and had to find seats (choose from large cushions on the floor or church pews or chairs) not knowing what direction we would be looking. It was hard to hear the introduction since the speaker did not have a microphone. Once the program began, it seemed like images on one wall did not travel around 360 degrees. And depending on where you sit, you may have chandeliers and other infrastructure in your sightline. At times, it was a bit difficult to hear the words spoken during the program. Rembrandt was not as interesting or as colorful as Van Gogh (at least in his later years). I ended up just looking around and up to see what I could enjoy during the program. I did see a number of my favorite Van Gogh paintings, but have no idea how many different works were covered. The show lasted about 40 minutes. It was not as much fun as the other immersive experiences I've seen (where you can get up and move around), but it was still enjoyable!

Worth the visit if you have a ride!

Enjoyable! Set in an historic church both artists attended. Sound is a little garbled; visuals are like a panoramic slide show. Area is difficult to access via taxi.

Not when you are tired!

I was tired after long day of walking and there were mats on which I lay - this was a mistake. I initially started to dose. The imagery is cast on the ceiling and the walls. Lying on your back you have to crane your head around to see the walls as well. I wonder if it would have been better to have been seated? The sound, as I am a senior, was occasionally difficult to discern but overall mood was set and did impact the images. I am not certain that the value is there though at 17€ for 40min. On the other hand I do not regret spending time experiencing Van Gogh’s words while seeing his images.

Beautiful Experience

The atmosphere in this church was truly beautiful, and the production of the experience was top-notch. Our guide for the day, Gustavo, was fantastic. It's quite something to realise you're in the same church where both Rembrandt and Van Gogh once were (and that it's still an active church)! The unique touch of laying on bean bags in the church's center made it even more memorable. We found the experience to be very informative and thoroughly impressive. Definitely recommend a visit! Just be sure to wrap up warm, as it can be a little cold inside, which is understandable for such a large church

Colorfull Story

Lovely show, A wonderfull moment to simply enjoy a story and beautiful art. The colors and the sound bring you into the story.

Très belle découverte

Merci pour cette belle expérience, les jeux des sons et lumières sont magnifiques dans une église où des matelas sont mis à votre disposition au sol pour admirer le joli spectacle. Pensez à vous couvrir car il fait assez frais dans l'église et le spectacle dure 40mins. Gustavo est juste genialissime, très agréable. Attention le spectacle est entièrement commenté mais en anglais exclusivement. Si vous achetez un tour en bateau ou en bus rouge vous aurez une réduction pour cette attraction. Merciiiii

Incredible

The story was incredible. How the pictures were displayed felt like Van Gogh was there through his artwork. This is our last day in Amsterdam and it really made our final day feel special. Thank you to all the people who made the amazing display.

Amazing presentation

If you love Goya's art and want to experience it through the voices and photos it is an amazing experience to see it all come alive. I recommend it highly

Lovely experience

Very friendly staff it was enjoyable and a different way of looking at art. Really enjoyed the experience with a great summary of how Van Gough was inspired by Rembrandt.

Unlike anything I have done before!

This experience was incredible and nothing like I have ever experienced before! You are so immersed that you genuinely lose track of time. Would highly recommend.

Mooi beeld en matig geluid.

Absoluut een mooie weergave van werken van Van Gogh en Rembrandt. De gesproken ondertiteling is alleen slecht te verstaan, omdat de muziek daarvoor te hard staat in een gebouw vol acoustic.

booked by mistake, but loved the experience 😍 …

A Mesmerizing Journey Through Art at the Noorderkerk The Van Gogh and Rembrandt light performance at the Noorderkerk is a breathtaking tribute to two of the Netherlands' greatest artists. Located in the heart of the Jordaan, the historic church becomes a living canvas as stunning projections of Van Gogh’s vivid landscapes and Rembrandt’s evocative portraits illuminate its walls. Guided by the voice of a skilled narrator, the audience is taken on an intimate journey through the lives and works of these masters. The narration adds depth and context, weaving the stories behind the art into the immersive visual experience. The interplay of light, color, and storytelling creates a unique atmosphere, blending history and innovation within the awe-inspiring architecture of Noorderkerk. This performance is an unforgettable homage to Dutch artistic heritage, offering a fresh and engaging way to connect with the timeless genius of Van Gogh and Rembrandt. I loved it. A must-see for art lovers and anyone seeking a unique cultural experience in Amsterdam.

Amazing immersive experience and not to be missed!

Beautiful immersive way to enjoy learning about Van Gogh and Rembrandt. Gorgeous setting and wonderful video/music projected onto the church. I feel sad by the amount of negative reviews because the purchasers didn’t know what they were buying - this is no reflection on the experience and is user error. The website clearly states multiple times ‘we are not the Van Gogh museum’ so I don’t think they can do any more to avoid this happening. I would definitely recommend - I loved lying on the bean bags to watch the church transform in front of my eyes!

Wonderful experience

The show was amazing and breathtaking !! The images and the sound worked so well together. We enjoyed the whole show and the time flew away. The church as a place for this show was just the perfect spot. For us it was the perfect final of a great day in Amsterdam. It’s a beautiful way to come a little closer to the two artist Van Gogh and Rembrandt, even if you don’t enjoy standing in a museum and watching art the whole day.

Incredible virtual experience

The virtual art experience of Van Gogh and Rembrandt was absolutely stunning. The setting was both lovely and meaningful, creating a perfect backdrop for the works of these two iconic artists. The atmosphere was immersive, and the visuals were simply breathtaking, bringing their masterpieces to life in ways that felt both intimate and grand. What made this experience truly memorable was how well it conveyed the stories and legacies of these two famous local artists. Each piece seemed to speak not only of their genius but of the rich cultural heritage they left behind. The combination of stunning visuals, captivating storytelling, and an incredible atmosphere made this experience a beautiful tribute to Van Gogh and Rembrandt. Highly recommended for any art lover!

Amazing immersive art experience!

The MOST amazing experience! Absolute highlight of our trip to Amsterdam. Grab a bean bag on the floor, recline, and look up as the art and story are projected on the ceiling and walls. Staff did a great job. Go!

Art in immersive storytelling!

This is a must see experience. Cozy, immersive and a unique lens to art. It helps you get a peek into Van Gogh's mind and why Rembrandt inspired him as much as he did.

Informative and enjoyable visit to see this light display

Really enjoyed this light display. The setting was perfect to learn about these fabulous artists. It was held in a church and you had the choice to lie on the floor on beanbags or chairs. Very informative

Tolles Event

Wir wurden von einem supernetten Team empfangen, die Atmosphäre in der Kirche war natürlich auch etwas ganz besonderes. Die Show war wundervoll aufgebaut, immer wieder gab es fantastische Übergänge. Die Geschichte Van Goghs aus seinen Briefen zu erfahren war wirklich spannend, man sollte auf jeden Fall recht gut englisch verstehen können, um den Texten zu folgen. Wir waren auf jeden Fall begeistert und haben viele Fotos und Videos gemacht. Es lohnt sich, sich frühzeitig in die Schlange zu stellen, um einen der gemütlichen Sitzsäcke zu bekommen.

Great experience!

Great experience, different and beautiful. It would be better if there were different languages, and the sound is a bit low so it was difficult to understand.

Visual Excitement!

The visuals were great, it felt so surreal. The staff were super patient (I was 5 minutes late 🤭🤭) Definitely recommend!!

Immersive experience

A very cool experience linking the two great artists in a church we you are surrounded but their artwork screened onto the walls and ceiling. Music was emotive and the art stunning. Only downside is the audio which can be difficult to hear.

Impressive visuals

Such an incredible show! The visuals were so impressive and very friendly staff! I liked how you could take photos of the show as well.

Came here with my partner without pre-planning our visit and found that to be no problem. Upon queueing up we found out that there was an English show in an hour and a half and that we could come back for that show. When we got back, we bought the tickets without any issues, made our way inside the church and found a beanbag to lay down on. The whole experience took about 45min and was absolutely beautiful to watch. They tell you the (a small part of) life story of Van Gogh and how that intertwined with Rembrandt, how the paintings got to be as we know them today and the visuals really captivate the words that are spoken. The visuals in general are absolutely captivating and very peaceful. For some the show was so peaceful they even snoozed off. Which was quite hilarious to see. I do have to say that the seating availability isn't the greatest for the angle you need to be tilting your head to watch the show for a long time. If you have a beanbag you are definitely a lucky person, since many complained about their neck afterwards. Overall a good experience, would recommend this for the arts enthusiasts out there.

It was really lovely, different than other emerssive experiences I've had

Excelente exposición! La recomiendo ampliamente.

Amazing!!! So worth it and so inspiring

An unique experience. A must when in Amsterdam.

It was a great experience. You can go even if your English is bad.

Super expérience je recommande

By mistake me, my wife and my baby girl have visited the Van Gogh x Rembrandt but honestly what an experience to have in Amsterdam. Bruno was super cool and has shared so much after the presentation too. Definitely if you are in Amsterdam you should pay them a visit!

Great experience, beautiful views and informative but not boring at all.

A magical experience from start to finish. I was wowed by every change of scène. You don't just get to see the art, you get to live in it

Great price and worth the visit.

My husband and I really enjoyed this experience. It was a great way to increase our basic knowledge of both artists while enjoying the visuals of their works projected in a place they met. The experience was immersive and cut you off from the outside world. While we were a few minutes late, the staff were accomodating and the experience was worth our time. Would recommend.

What a wonderful way to enjoy both artists stories and feel as if you’re in the painting. You can stand, sit or lie down on large pillows. My daughter and I happened upon this immersive experience, offered in Dutch and English. A 360 degree projection in De Noorderkerk. The staff were gracious and kind! I couldn’t have asked for a better serendipitous immersive art experience. I highly recommend and would see again. Tickets can be bought at the door.

Great venue and lovely helpful staff. Unique experience

Visited this exhibition and although had some trouble finding it it was well worth it. The staff were so helpful helping us find our way back to central train station. Amazing venue and insightful story told. The projections of the artists works were incredible. A fully emersive experience we would strongly recommend.

A unique experience

A unique experience with the famous paintings projected on the church ceiling and wall while you lie on bean bags to listen to the story behind them

Emotional & evocative.

I left with goosebumps, this was such a unique & touching experience. Feel blessed to have experienced it. Jus wonderful, it really made my holiday.

I wondered how it will be, the result for me is that I was very satisfied. Indeed, it is well done, both for images, Lights and sounds. I think I understand now better who is Rembrandt and I have to say that thanks to this show I also appreciate his paints...

An interesting take on same famous artists. Very comfortable seating and an all immersive viewing for 45 mins. If you want something a little different and not too much detail this is ideal. NB. You should know a little about the two and art before heading in.

Geweldige ervaring in een prachtige ambiance. Jammer dat de speaker in het engels is. Ik woon in Nederland.!,Verder absolute aanrader!

Very nice environment , perfectly made installation! A lot of room for sitting. The old church keeps the vibe. And it is amazing to feel that Rembrandt and Van Gogh were in the same church sitting maybe on the same place. Both children and grandparents were in love. See more pictures and videos attached.
