You have some time to kill and don’t really know what to do? We have a solution: the Amsterdam sex museum. This highly unusual museum is much more cultural than its name would suggest.

An establishment that should be on your list of alternative things to do, if you have already had the opportunity to discover all the classic and unmissable activities of the Dutch capital!

WHY IS THERE A SEX MUSEUM IN AMSTERDAM?

It’s true, it’s a good question. Indeed, we are all entitled to ask ourselves why there is a sex museum in Amsterdam. The answer, in the end, is very simple: why not?

This sex museum does not pay tribute to today’s sexuality but traces the history of physical relationships through the ages with a large collection of images, photos, videos and other recordings.

The most unusual? The many objects to discover, which allow to realize how sexual relations have evolved over time. In short, it is a museum more instructive than it seems…

HOW LONG DOES A VISIT TO THE AMSTERDAM SEX MUSEUM LAST?

It all depends on how fast you go or want to go. As a general rule, you should allow 45 minutes for the visit. But it can be as short as 30 minutes or as long as 1 hour, depending on your interest!

DO I NEED TO BOOK A TICKET ONLINE TO VISIT THE SEX MUSEUM IN AMSTERDAM?

Unlike other museums, such as the Anne Frank House, it is possible to buy your ticket directly on site. Indeed, this is a museum considered by many to be “fun”, having little or no connection with the city and Dutch culture.

In fact, the queue is usually not very long. If you really don’t want to wait, the online booking solution is of course possible, although not really necessary.

WHERE IS THE MUSEUM?

Are you looking for the Amsterdam Sex Museum? Here is its address: Damrak 18, 1012 LH Amsterdam. Easy to find, it is open every day of the week, from Monday to Sunday, from 10am to 6pm.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO ENTER THE MUSEUM?

This is one of the cheapest museums in Amsterdam. Indeed, the entrance will cost you no more than 2.50 euros. Not much to pay for a rather unusual hour, which is clearly out of the ordinary!
