Join us for a special day of exploring Amsterdam's architectural and cultural heritage during Open Monumentendag 2026.
Once a year, hundreds of historic buildings and monuments across the Netherlands open their doors to the public, many of them offering access to places that are normally closed or difficult to visit. In Amsterdam, the program includes historic buildings, guided tours, exhibitions, cultural activities, and other special events.
2026 is particularly special as it marks the 40th edition of Open Monumentendag.
