Prinsengracht closed for traffic

12 February 2012

This month part of Prinsengracht where our museum is will be closed for all traffic over a long period. The embankment needs to be repaired urgently and therefore will be taken down completely in order to lay a new concrete foundation. The council expects it will need approximately nine months to get the work done before a new pavement can be laid. In the meantime our shop and Museum will remain open as usual, but visitors have to walk over a boarded pathway coming either from Leidsestraat or Spiegelgracht. Unfortunately there will hardly be any passers-by during that period.
