[edit] Collection
The museum exhibits various items related to the history of Amsterdam, from the Middle Ages to the present time. On display are paintings, models, archeological findings, photographs, but also less likely items such as a playable carillon, a "white car" (environment-friendly vehicle from the 1960's) and a real Jordaan café.
