We visited this Resistance Museum on June 26, 2009, after seeing the ones in Copenhagen and Oslo. We were very impressed with the layout and features of this Museum. It was truly one of the best we had seen on this trip and I encourage you to go if you are interested in this era. It is in a new... more

It's okay, but not as informative as I thought it would be. Some interesting displays. more

The Resistance Museum is an interesting look at the impact of WWII on the Netherlands, but most of the information presented is about the war years in general. While the resistance movement was certainly highlighted, there were few specific stories about individuals and their actions during the war. Large scale events, like strikes and student demonstrations, were well covered, but... more

This interactive museum is a moving tribute to the brave people of Holland who fought against the Germans. You move from year to year of the German occupation and see how the Dutch suffered and died and the brave resistance fighters who always fought back. Its across the street from the zoo, so after you have watched the animals just... more

The The Resistance Museum (Amsterdams Verzetsmuseum) is a small but amazing museum that is a great compliment to the Anne Frank House! The museum focuses on the German Occupation and the Nazi rule in the Netherlands during the World War II (1940-1945). The exhibits are some of the best and most organized exhibits I have ever seen. The exhibits are... more

Such a lovely museum, packed full of interesting information and artefacts, and presented in an accessible way. it was so quiet when we visited too, which was lovely as the bigger museums get packed. I had tears i my eyes several times, it really is moving. Some amazingly inspirational sories to be found here, I recommend it highly. more

Although I have been to Amsterdam many times over many years, finding this museum was an incredible and exciting new adventure. I was impressed by the depth and amount of information presented in a relatively small space, but also by the artistry and imagination of the exhibits. My favorite? An exhibit about letters, written by Jewish detainees being shipped off... more

We opted for this museum in lieu of the Anne Frank House (which I had been to but my husband had not). This museum has so much information and is done in such a creative way that we could've spent 3 hours reading and watching everything. It's incredible the amount of information and what you learn about the Dutch people... more
