Situated at the heart of Amsterdam on Rokin, the Amsterdam Museum is built inside a historical church, adding to the authenticity of the experience.
The attraction is part of a network of Dungeons owned by Poole-based Merlin Entertainments, with each location investigating the history of its own local area while following a similar theme.
