Following the Rijksmuseum, the recently renovated Museum “Our Lord in the Attic” holds the distinction of being the city’s second oldest museum. This unique site offers visitors an immersive glimpse into the past, allowing them to step back in time to when the house itself doubled as a church. Concealed behind the charming canal house façade lies a remarkable treasure: a preserved 17th-century home, complete with an entire church. This remarkable “attic” church came into existence during the post-Reformation era, a period when Catholic worship was prohibited from being conducted openly.

Ons’ Lieve Heer Op Solder Amsterdam TripAdvisor Reviews

“We loved this museum. The audio tour was informative and extremely interesting and there was surprise after surprise during our visit. We were mesmerised!”

“Came on a whim to this little museum just 5 min walk from the Centraal train station and a stone’s throw from the red light district, as I had a late flight from Schiphol and a few hours to spare.”

“This is a great and unassuming little museum that I spent 2h wandering happily around – not only the wealth of history within its walls, this museum showcases the thing I love most about Amsterdam which is the mutual respect and tolerance for others. Not the usual tourist attraction but well worth the visit if you have some time.”

“This was our favourite! Such an excellent house/ museum/ church. The commentary was very informative and there is so much to see and contemplate. Great value for money.”

“This was one of the highlights of our trip, it is quite amazing and very beautiful. It could teach present day people tolerance!”
