Architecture in Amsterdam

Amsterdam's architecture reveals itself neighbourhood by neighbourhood. The Jordaan and The 9 Streets are lined with narrow canal houses whose stepped and bell gables define the city's skyline, while the Westerkerk tower rises above them just beside the Anne Frank House. The Concertgebouw and the Stedelijk Museum illustrate how the city layers late-nineteenth-century grandeur alongside modernist design. Nieuwmarkt and De Pijp offer dense urban blocks of a different era, and Amsterdam Noord adds contemporary construction to the mix. Together these places make the city a rewarding destination for anyone attentive to built form.
