Amsterdam Tulip Museum

We are proud partner of the Amsterdam Tulip Museum.

With approximately 2,200 square feet of newly-updated shop and exhibit spaces, the museum is dedicated to the surprising and flamboyant history of the tulip. Varied interactive exhibits by local artists trace the famous flower’s journey from its origins in the wild highlands of the Himalayas to its arrival at the lavish court of the Ottoman Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent to its popularity in the home gardens of today.

A visitor favorite is the exhibit that explores the famous Tulipmania period of the 1630s. It was in the century known as
The Dutch Golden Age – when Amsterdam was the center of world trade, and Dutch art, science and maritime and military strength held sway worldwide – that the tumultuous tulip trade led to one of history’s most infamous market crashes.

The Amsterdam Tulip Museum is housed in a canal house at Prinsengracht 116 in the charming Jordaan neighborhood.
