Visitor information

Pérez Siquier – Colours and contrasts of Spain, Huis Marseille, 25.03.2023 — 18.06.2023 © Eddo Hartmann

Huis Marseille is Amsterdam’s first photography museum. Since September 1999, the museum has been offering a rich and varied exhibition program that changes an average of three times a year. The exhibitions are shown in two seventeenth-century canal houses in which many original details are intact, such as opulent ceiling paintings, stucco work, marble, and a red Louis XIV-style period room. The museum also has a library, a specialized photo book shop, and a tranquil canal garden which are all open to visitors.

Getting here

Huis Marseille is best reached by bicycle or public transport. Take tram 2 or tram 12 from Central Station, get off at stop Keizersgracht and walk 4 minutes, or take metro 52 (North-South line) towards Station Zuid, get off at stop Rokin and walk 8 minutes. If you are traveling by car, you can park in Q-Park Europarking (Marnixstraat) or in parking garage Kalverstaat (Singel).

Accessibility

Due to the historical character and monument status of the two canal houses housing Huis Marseille, the museum is unfortunately not fully accessible for the differently-abled. Because of the many staircases, the galleries are particularly difficult to access for wheelchair and walker users. The same applies to a children’s pram, which you can temporarily leave at reception during your visit. If you need an escort to visit the museum, we will grant them free access.

Pets are not allowed, with the exception of registered assistance dogs. Such dogs must wear a vest or harness bearing the name of the school where they were trained. In addition, the dog’s handler must be able to present the dog’s appropriate identification card with the required information on it.

For more information on the museum’s accessibility, email info@huismarseille.nl, or call +31 (0) 20 531 89 83.
