It opens at 9:00 every day; closes at 17:00 or 18:00 depending on the month, and on Fridays at 21:00, with music and activities in the Vincent on Friday programme.
How to get there
It is at Museumplein 6, next to the Rijksmuseum. From Central Station, trams 2, 5 or 24 to the Museumplein stop. Under the square is a Q-Park car park, although in Amsterdam it is not worth going by car.
