The National Holocaust Museum tells the story of the Nazi persecution and murder of the Jews of the Netherlands. Before the Second World War, Jews and non-Jews lived side by side. They had the same rights. But during the war, the Nazis and their collaborators killed around six million Jews in Europe. That was the Holocaust or Shoah.

This is the first and only museum to relate the history of the persecution of the Jews of the entire Netherlands. Including the day-to-day life of Jews on the eve of the Second World War, the liberation as Jews experienced it, and how the Holocaust has been treated in our national culture of remembrance: all this is examined in the museum.

What To Expect

1

Through this former teacher training school hundreds of Jewish children, who were held captive in the crèche next door, were smuggled to relatively safe places with the help of the resistance during the Second World War. At this historic site, in the National Holocaust Museum, the story of the Holocaust is told in changing exhibitions and events in an artistic form and based on personal accounts.

Hollandsche Schouwburg

During the Second World War, the occupying forces made Jews assemble in this former theatre. Tens of thousands of people were held here, not knowing what fate awaited them, until they were deported to concentration and extermination camps. The Hollandsche Schouwburg is now a memorial site with a wall of names commemorating the Jewish victims. It also holds an exhibition about the Holocaust in the Netherlands.

  • Children of survivors

    It was very moving. As my husband and I are children of halocust survivors. All our parents were left orphans alone with most of their family killed. My mother in law survived auschwitz #A7446. She just passed away a few months ago at the age of 98. She lived to see 5 generations and over 200 descendants. A very special woman. My.mother was alone in a dp camp with a sister the only survivors of the war. I would love to see more pictures of the orthodox people. I was happy to see a quote of Eli Weisel my cousin. My father and Eli shared a grandfather.

  • Interesting.

    Very nice experience, the museum ES very serious and quiet, the system DE audio guides seems great but I understand NO have it in Spanish language. I traveled with my mother who speaks NO English and could use NO audio guide, I could translate it all to ME but it was not the idea. POR everything else, we really liked the experience and the museum staff super nice.

    The museum had moving stories but was poorly organized. The audio didn't always connect to your location/items in front of you. We have been to much better museums.

    Really interesting especially that it’s in the old school building where the children were saved. We didn’t read all the hanging signs in the room in the ground floor as there were so many.

  • A Detailed History of the Holocause.

    Unlike other Holocaust museums, the Amsterdam museum focuses more on the choronological progression of The Shoah and the role of rescuers as well as collaborators...as opposed to photo evidence of the injustices or atrocities. Both approachs are equally valid and together they give a complete picturen of what really happened.
