Step inside for a moment of tranquility and marvel at the artistic details that adorn this spiritual sanctuary.
Begijnhof
Escape the city bustle and find serenity in the Begijnhof, one of Amsterdam's oldest and most enchanting courtyards. Dating back to the 14th century, this tranquil haven once housed a community of devout, unmarried women. Wander through its peaceful gardens, admire the historic houses, including Amsterdam's oldest wooden house, and reflect on the rich history that permeates this hidden gem. The Begijnhof offers a unique glimpse into Amsterdam's past and provides a serene retreat from the lively city streets.
