App Description

This lite version of the Amsterdam Museum tour covers five objects in the Amsterdam Museum. These objects introduce Amsterdam’s early history: a leather shoe dating from the Middle Ages discovered during archaeological excavations; four oak statues of counts from the county of Holland; a fragment of a pietà damaged during the iconoclastic fury of the 16th century; the oldest surviving map of Amsterdam, painted from a bird’s-eye view; and a wooden foundation pile from a building on the Herengracht, which represents the many thousands of piles that anchor Amsterdam in the boggy peat.
