Celebrate the story of the world's most famous flower, whose beauty drove rich and poor, Emperors and Sultans to ecstasy and bankruptcy.
Founded in 2004, the Amsterdam Tulip Museum seeks to fill a void in the history of the tulip. Amsterdam has no comparable institution dedicated to telling Holland's fascinating horticultural story. Located in the Jordaan district, the museum offers a special reward for anyone interested in gardening, or simply sightseeing in Amsterdam. The exhibits trace the tulip bulb from its ancient wild origins to modern 21st century cultivation. Our museum shop offers unique gifts, bulbs in season, books, and craft items. Visitors from the USA and the EU may place advance bulb orders. We are located near the Westerkerk in the Jordaan, a one minute walk from the Anne Frank House.
