Average visit durationWereldmuseum Amsterdam
The Wereldmuseum Amsterdam is housed in an impressive national monument that has colonial roots. As such, colonialism and its repercussions are an important theme. Topics such as world trade, consumption, migration, climate change, and urbanization are also relevant to Amsterdam. The exhibitions in the museum always make a connection between the historical context and current global themes. Since 2023, Wereldmuseum Amsterdam, along with Wereldmuseum Rotterdam and Wereldmuseum Leiden, has been part of the National Museum of World Cultures. This merger brings together nearly 450,000 objects, 260,000 photographic images, and approximately 350,000 documentary items, strengthening the museum's mission to inspire an open view of the world and contribute to global citizenship.
