Benjamin JohanssonFebruary 13, 2016Easily under the top 20 museums for modern art world wide. You simply have to come here if you're in Amsterdam.
My favourite museum in Amsterdam by far. Love their (free to walk in) bookshop as well.
Dorothy NgSeptember 24, 2015Good variety of artworks. Great place for graphic designer, they showcase tons of book designs. Friday closed at 10pm
John 忠威 suɐɥ Dyke🐑August 31, 2014A very interesting collection of modern art with changing exhibitions of works. The new building allows more to be seen
Thetis TAugust 8, 2016Amazing museum with great art collections! A must visit, very inspiring and enlightening!
Thomas MeijerAugust 31, 2014Get yourself a Museum Jaarkaart if you wanna visit the three big museums here!
John BarnhamMarch 10, 2015Nice exhibition about the museum in WW2. Although I found the story/history more interesting than the art on show.
Nuno GouveiaAugust 23, 2014Worth your time if you like modern art. There are paintings from a wider variety of famous artists than you might expect.
Jack DavisMay 13, 2015Amazing collection of modern art and exhibitions of contemporary art! Ended up spending hours here.
Christine LoJanuary 25, 2016Not it to be missed. Fantastic architecture. De Kooning, Kandinsky, CoBrA, Mondrian
JorgeJuly 11, 2013Skip anything you don't find pretty or interesting. Modern art is to be criticized and discussed. It's not that you "dont get it", its the artist whom didn't get to you. Highlights: Mondriaan
Benjamin HollwayAugust 19, 2017Lovely museum! Great selection of some very famous pieces, free audio guide!
Masha GoposhkoNovember 18, 2014Always great exhibitions, amazing shop with plenty of interesting books, postcards and toys
Adel Bernadett PappApril 25, 2017Wonderful contemporary art museum. Check out the rabobank family lab on the ground floor!
Christopher LyonDecember 5, 2017If you’re interested in the permanent collection, don’t bother going until after mid-December. Currently NONE of it on view. Ghastly show of recent art now on view.
Ahnu SuriaFebruary 1, 2016So much to see and it's definitely a place to visit of you love contemporary art!
Kevin BrenkmanNovember 25, 2016Favourite museum in Amsterdam. Come here for contemporary art and graphic design

Reinier De JongeJune 29, 2017Really like going here loads of expositions and also great restaurant on sight
Mykolas PetrauskasJuly 23, 2015Great modern art exhibition, was featuring extensive Matisse collection during our visit. Very inspiring place!
ErtanMay 24, 2013Bow down at the toilet to find the hidden soap dispenser. And wash each hand while the other hand waves near the far sensor. And enjoy modernism.- Lauren HannahAugust 18, 2014Check out the gift shop! They have loads of books and stationery you didn't know you wanted.
BoMarch 24, 2019Interesting take on Dutch modern art development. Not the most exciting collection on foreign artists.
Valia Z._November 21, 2014Definately a must visit museum in Amsterdam. Till 4 Jan. do not lose Marlene Dumas exhibition.
Nice, Nice, Nice. One of the best museums in Europe.
Pedro GuerreroNovember 16, 2021If they reject your luggage from rijks or Van Gogh museum you can leave it here, at free charge
The less busy and more experimental museum of museumplein: not to be missed
Great museum of modern art with beautyful temporary exhibitions.
- Dirk BreedveldSeptember 10, 2014Nice café downstairs with nice shrimp croqettes; friendly staff and fast service
Reem KazimApril 6, 2019Glad I checked it out, but it isn’t worth it if we didn’t have the student discount
- They've got a nice library downstairs all with books about design schools, designers, artists, etc.
Pieter BraeckeveltJanuary 12, 2014Great modern museum. Interesting to see what was considered modern a while ago...
Katya NoskovaOctober 21, 2013For sure stedelijk museum is more enjoyable than overcrowded van gogh museum
Take your time walking around. Don't skip the upstairs while you are at the Stedelijk.
Frank TentlerSeptember 15, 2011You love museums and european metropoles? Then visit Berlins Pergamon Museum with its new exhibition http://www.pergamon-panorama.de . You will never forget it!
