Our Locals' Tip: Pick up the informative handheld guide which will show you the ropes. The highlight of the Houseboat Museum would definitely be the skipper's quarters. The skipper's quarters are where the captain lives and operates the vessel. . Do we hear someone calling, 'Aye, aye skipper!'?
The Woonbootmuseum, popularly known as the Houseboat Museum, is a one-of-its-kind museum which gives visitors the feel of living in a houseboat. Creating a museum on a barge, known as the Hendrika Maria, the Houseboat Museum is a great chance for tourists to experience the life of a sailor living inside a seafaring vessel moored in the Amsterdam Canal. With a splendid background setting of the Prinsengracht canal in Jordaan, one can simply sink, metaphorically speaking only, in the pleasure of the spacious and comfortable museum.
