This neat little museum along one of the many canals in Amsterdam is a hidden gem. It was one of the larger houses with a front house that opens on one canal and a back, carriage house that opens up to a second canal. Between the two structures is a beautifully maintained little garden typical of the way they were kept in the past century or so.
