Good to know

Practical notes before your visit.

TimingFor a calmer visit, choose a weekday or arrive earlier in the day rather than visiting during the busiest periods. The museum currently lists opening hours of 10:00 to 18:00 every day, subject to dated exceptions. Allow roughly 50 minutes to 1.5 hours for the museum visit.
EntranceUse the entrance at Oudezijds Voorburgwal 38-40; Museum Our Lord in the Attic is housed in a hidden 17th-century canal house, so the doorway can be easy to miss. Large bags over A4 size and backpacks are not allowed inside the monument: leave them in the free lockers or the unguarded cloakroom, and do not bring umbrellas, pointed walking sticks, or other items that could pose a safety risk. The museum is about a five-minute walk from Amsterdam Centraal Station or Nieuwmarkt Metro Station.
PriceThe official benchmark for the "Adult 18+" entry ticket is €18. No partner option is available for comparison here, so check the final checkout total and inclusions before paying.
DiscountsChildren up to and including 4 years enter free, while visitors aged 5–17 use the child admission category. Holders of a Museumkaart or I amsterdam City Card must still reserve a free ticket in advance; the pass alone does not replace the reservation. General advance booking is not mandatory, but Museum Our Lord in the Attic recommends reserving ahead to secure admission on your chosen day.

Planning your visit

Museum Our Lord in the Attic occupies a preserved 17th-century canal house in central Amsterdam, where Jan Hartman created a Catholic worship space across the upper floors. The building is known in Dutch as Ons' Lieve Heer op Solder and is a rare schuilkerk, or clandestine church, built after the Protestant Reformation restricted public Catholic worship. This hidden church Amsterdam landmark is also remembered as a secret Catholic church concealed above ordinary homes.

Inside, narrow corridors and steep stairs connect period rooms, kitchens and beds built into cupboards before reaching the attic church. The house reflects the Dutch Golden Age, while paintings including work by Jacob de Wit add to the historic interiors. Museum Our Lord in the Attic stands near De Wallen and is about a five-minute walk from Amsterdam Central Station or Nieuwmarkt metro station.

A time slot reservation is used for entry, including for visitors using a free admission ticket through a Museumkaart or city card. Every admission ticket includes access to the museum route, and a free audio guide tour is available in eight languages. A guided attic tour is available for groups by advance arrangement and offers longer historical context than the standard visit.

The published opening hours are Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 18:00 and Sunday from 13:00 to 18:00, with holiday exceptions. Accessibility limitations matter because the historic route contains many narrow and steep stairs; wheelchairs, walkers and prams cannot enter the monument, while the entrance building, café, shop and temporary exhibition area are lift-accessible.

Before you buy

Concrete caveats: security, bags, cancellation, time slots.

  • Bags and backpacks larger than A4 size cannot enter the museum; free lockers are available, but large suitcases and weekend bags do not fit, so separate luggage storage may be needed.
  • Security and preservation rules still apply at admission: items considered a risk to visitors, staff, artworks or the historic building are not allowed, even with a valid ticket.
  • The visit includes many narrow, steep historic stairs, which can make parts of the museum inaccessible for visitors with limited mobility; the entrance building, café and shop are easier to access.
  • Stiletto heels, pointed walking sticks and umbrellas are prohibited because they can damage the original historic floors and objects.
  • Food, drinks and water bottles are not permitted inside the museum, so plan to finish or store refreshments before entering.
  • The cloakroom is unguarded, and the museum accepts no responsibility for lost, stolen or damaged personal property.

Frequently asked questions

The things people ask most.

Can I show my ticket on my phone, and do I need to reserve a time slot?

Museum Our Lord in the Attic offers advance e-ticket booking through its online ticket shop, where you select a visit date. The official visitor information does not confirm a mobile-only entry procedure or publish a separate time-slot grace period, so keep your booking confirmation accessible and follow the date and time shown on it.

Can I cancel my Museum Our Lord in the Attic ticket or get a refund?

If you cannot attend on your reserved date, the official FAQ says you can exchange the ticket for another date and time, subject to the booking instructions. The payment itself is not refundable.

Is it better to buy from Official site or a partner?

The “Adult 18+” option is sold by Official site and has a €18 benchmark in this comparison. If you use another checkout, compare the final total and the stated cancellation and inclusion terms rather than assuming the conditions are identical.

What bags can I take inside Museum Our Lord in the Attic?

Backpacks and bags larger than A4 format cannot be taken into the historic building. Free lockers are available for coats and bags, but the museum has no space for large suitcases; security-related items and umbrellas may also be refused under the museum’s visiting rules.

What happens if I arrive late?

Museum Our Lord in the Attic does not publish a general late-arrival grace period in its official FAQ. Do not rely on being admitted after the date or time stated in your booking; contact the booking helpdesk if your arrival is delayed.

Do visitors with free or reduced admission still need a reservation?

Yes. Visitors using a Museumkaart, I amsterdam City Card or another qualifying discount should reserve the official “Reservation for free ticket” option, and the card must be brought for checking at the museum. Children up to and including age four are listed as free in the official ticket shop.

What is the main difficulty during the visit?

The historic house and church route includes many narrow and sometimes steep stairs, so it can be difficult for visitors with walking limitations. Wheelchairs, walkers and prams cannot enter the historic monument, while the entrance building’s temporary exhibition space, café and shop are accessible by lift.
