Amsterdam Museum: The Story of Amsterdam in Motion

Amsterdam in Motion puts you face to face with the world’s largest multimedia city model, where light, sound, and interaction tell the city’s story in real time.

Kick things off at the main entrance inside Westergas Culture Park. Show your ticket, get a quick welcome and intro, then head straight into the exhibition space where the city slowly starts waking up around you.
