STRAAT Museum
A vast street-art and graffiti museum in a former NDSM shipyard warehouse across the IJ, with 150+ huge murals.
The call
Worth it if you are watching the budget and you only have one day.
Why
- 01
An exhilarating, under-the-radar hit — wall-sized works in a raw industrial hangar, reached by a fun free ferry, and far better value than the small central art museums.
Our read - 02
The catch: it's across the water in the NDSM district, so it takes a deliberate trip, and the surrounding area is post-industrial rather than pretty.
