Museum Our Lord in the Attic  
Our Lord in the Attic is one of the oldest and most remarkable museums in Amsterdam. Behind the characteristic facade of the house by the canal lies a largely original 17th-century home and a complete hidden church. This hidden church 'in the attic' was built during the Reformation, when Catholics were forbidden to hold public services. Today, the church and the house form the backdrop to a succession of striking exhibitions highlighting religion and contemporary art.


The jewel in the crown of Our Lord in the Attic is its unique hidden church, complete with galleries, a large altar and around 150 seats. The rest of the building, with its period rooms from the 17th and 19th centuries, is also well worth viewing. In addition, the museum has a magnificent collection of paintings, sculpture and silver providing an overview of Catholic history in Amsterdam. Next to its permanent presentation, the museum also hosts temporary exhibitions and regular activities for the public.

The museum lies in the heart of the oldest part of Amsterdam, in the centre of the (in)famous red light district. Along with the locals from Amsterdam as many as 85,000 people visit the museum each year.
