"Any city that began in the 13th century as a boggy swamp to become the trading powerhouse of the world in the 17th century has a fascinating story to tell, and this museum does it superbly."

"You won't find any dusty relics here – the city's history museum covers the early years well, but just as interesting are the exhibits on the past century."

"This is the house that Rembrandt bought, flush with success, for 13,000 guilders (a princely sum) in 1639, and where he lived and worked until 1656 when declared bankrupt."

Frommer's
"In this house (ca. 1606), you get a more intimate sense of Rembrandt -- it's a shrine to one of the greatest artists the world has ever known."

"When he was declared bankrupt, clerks inventoried the house room by room; it's these records that provided the renovators with clues as to what the house looked like in Rembrandt's time."

"No oil paintings on display—go to the Rijksmuseum if that's what you're after—but plenty of his groundbreaking etchings."
