About

Discover the Hidden Treasures of Museum Our Lord in the Attic

Nestled in the historic heart of Amsterdam, Museum Our Lord in the Attic offers a glimpse into Dutch history and religious heritage in a way no other museum does. This 17th-century canal house is home to a fully functioning Catholic church delicately concealed on its upper floors, reflecting a time when Catholicism was practised in private due to religious restrictions. This clandestine house of worship is an incredibly rare surviving example of a schuilkerk – a hidden church built in response to periods of religious intolerance.

A Journey Through Time and Faith

Your entry ticket invites you to ascend the narrow staircases and explore beautifully preserved living quarters, kitchens and storerooms, all leading up to a magnificent secret chapel. The church itself is a masterpiece, adorned with ornate altars, religious art and delicate details that echo centuries of faith and resilience. Guided by an included audio guide, you’ll uncover stories of the families who lived here, their devotion and the lengths they went to preserve their faith in secrecy.

A Museum Unlike Any Other

On the lower floors, the museum tells the fascinating story of Amsterdam’s religious and cultural evolution. Exhibits highlight everyday life in the city during the 1600s, showcasing rare artefacts and historical displays. The audio guide enhances your visit, offering detailed insights in your chosen language, making the experience accessible and engaging for visitors of all backgrounds.

Why Visit Museum Our Lord in the Attic?

  • See one of Europe’s most unique historic sites where private devotion became public heritage

  • Marvel at the ingenious use of urban space to conceal a large, sumptuously decorated church

  • Learn about tolerance and diversity in Amsterdam through immersive exhibits and personal stories

  • Enjoy a self-paced experience with an audio guide available in multiple languages
