Historic Building

HUIS MET DE HOOFDEN

The House with the Heads is a prominent landmark where all sightseeing routes running through the Dutch capital converge. Built in 1622 for the wealthy merchant Nicholas Sohier, it remains a fascinating testimony of its times. The richly decorated facade of the House with the Heads is one of the very few surviving facades in the style referred to as the Amsterdam Renaissance, initiated by Hendrick de Keyser.
