Amsterdam's most famous landmarks include Anne Frank House, Jordaan neighborhood, Dam Square, Royal Palace of Amsterdam, West Church, National Monument, De Poezenboot, Oude Kerk, Weeping Tower, and many more. Here's a quick look at the top ones:
  • Anne Frank House: A scarring indictment of Nazi Germany, Anne Frank House is a biographical museum in Amsterdam. It is dedicated to Anne Frank, a young Jewish writer who documented her life in hiding from the Nazis. An Anna Frank walking tour will take you across the museum and the house while hearing about her story and the horrors of the Holocaust.
  • Royal Palace of Amsterdam: A magnificent symbol of Dutch royalty, the Royal Palace of Amsterdam is used for important state functions by the monarch. Its opulent architecture and elaborate interiors make it worth a visit.
  • Jordaan: One of the most popular neighborhoods in Amsterdam, the centrally-located Jordaan is home to vibrant houses, great local eateries, and quirky stores. A walk through Jordaan is a great way to spend your day and discover the local culture.
  • Dam Square: In the heart of the city lies the bustling Dam Square, once considered to be the main transport hub of the city and is today connected to almost all important regions. It is surrounded by several important monuments and dotted with various eateries and shopping stores.
  • Oude Kerk: Said to be the oldest building in Amsterdam, Oude Kerk, translated as Old Church, is a beautiful chapel made of age-old stone and wood. The church is said to have one of the best acoustics in Europe, with pipe organs dating back centuries.
The oldest landmark is Oude Kerk, dating back about 800 years. It is located in the De Wallen neighborhood of Amsterdam. Once a Catholic church, it was converted later to a Protestant cathedral during the Reformation period. An interesting highlight of Oude Kerk is the two monuments located outside, dedicated to the Red Light District sex workers.
The 5 most-visited landmarks in Amsterdam are:

  • Theatre Tuschinski: The awe-inspiring architecture of Theatre Tuschinski is worth exploring. Two tall towers flank both sides and ceramic sculptures adorn the theatre, while the facade blends multiple architectural styles such as Art Deco and Art Nouveau.
  • Montelbaanstoren Tower: Located on the banks of Amsterdam, the Montelbaanstoren Tower was once a defender of the city. Today, while it houses commercial offices, it is a wonderful monument to admire classy architecture and scenic views.
  • Prinseneiland & Realeneiland: These islands in Amsterdam are quite a rare find. Frequented only by the odd creative visitor, these picturesque islands have lovely bridges, age-old warehouses, a petting zoo, and quaint houses.
