Rembrandthuis

Museum het Rembrandthuis (the Rembrandt House Museum) is located in the house where Rembrandt lived and painted for a number of years. The building was constructed in 1606-1607, in a part of the city where many rich merchants and artists settled.
The museum’s collection of etchings grew steadily as a result of gifts and purchases over the decades, but few changes were made to the interior of the house. By the end of last century, the decision was taken to restore Rembrandt’s former home to its original condition. The restoration was completed in 1999.
The collection as it now stands provides an almost complete overview of Rembrandt’s graphic work. In addition to the collection of etchings, drawings and copper plates by the master himself, the Rembrandt House Museum also owns a small number of paintings by Rembrandt’s teacher, his pupils and his contemporaries.
