Wandering through his house that he lost and seeing how they recreated his living conditions were amazing. They were very short people.

The Rembrandthouse had, apart from their excellent exposition including explanation of Rembrandt, his house and painting and gravure technics and of course his paintings, a special expositions of old prints from scenes of Amsterdam, its canals and special buildings from late 19th and early 20th century. A pleasure for everyone who loves Amsterdam. This exposition is still going on,
The building has been beautifully restored and updated. The Golden Age floor is fairly crowded but is worth it. The presentation and quality of the paintings is stunning in the central hall.

The original house has been meticulously refurbished in authentic period furniture. There was a demonstration of paint preparation and the hand-held fully interactional talking guides were so useful -could have spent a week there not just a few hours and the shop was good value as well!

This museum looks like a canal house -- and it is. The museum is next door to Rembrant's house, and the audioguide takes you into the kitchen then up many steep staircases to explore how the house was decorated and arranged when Rembrandt owned it.
This has been a favourite place of mine to visit since my first trip in 2005. I love the etchings (and the provision of the magnifying glass). Audio guide pretty good here too.
Very interesting to see how people lived in those days. His studio and office was very interesting. No paintings there just a few etchings. More of how he lived and conditions.
