Amazon parrots, a mammoth foot, a python, and a T-rex. Welcome to the Art Zoo Museum, housed in the beautiful 17th-century canal house of the Vrije Academie and rooted in the rich tradition of the Wunderkammer.

Inspired by 16th- and 17th-century collections

Wunderkammers were the curiosity cabinets of kings and wealthy citizens, collections where art, nature and science came together in one room. Amsterdam had its own: Rembrandt kept one too.

A living tradition

Artists Darwin, Sinke & Van Tongeren bring this centuries-old tradition back to the Amsterdam canals. During the tour, Arianne Deligianis shows how their taxidermy works transform the architecture and interior of the building into something extraordinary. Join the tour and explore this ode to nature.
