Two museums for the price of one. The Amstelkring shows a 17th-century canal house as it would have been, and is a fascinating place. Best of all, though, on the top (attic) floor, is a complete, secret, Catholic church, from the time of the Reformation, when Catholicism was banned in Amsterdam.
The museum also has a game for younger children - find the ladybird; there are a number of tiny ladybird models all over the museum - how many can you find?
