Visit the Diamond Museum and become a diamond expert! While our museum prepares for its new home, the highlights of the collection are on show in a temporary exhibition, combined with a guided diamond factory tour on one ticket.
Your visit starts with a 30 minutes guided tour on the factory floor, where actual diamond polishers and goldsmiths turn rough stones into the most beautiful jewellery, and you discover the art of diamond valuation with the 4 C's: Carat, Clarity, Colour and Cut.
From the factory floor you walk straight into the exhibition. The Diamond Museum Highlight Exhibition sends you on a journey that starts 200 kilometres below the earth. You will learn how diamonds are formed through a process of billions of years to their final shape we all know and love. Be enchanted by glittering diamonds, admire the gorilla skull set with 17,000 diamonds, and come face to face with the Koh-i-Noor, the Cullinan and the crowns of kings.
Good to know: This compact highlights exhibition runs until 31 December 2027. It is self-guided, with all texts in English via QR codes. We are on Museumplein, two minutes from the Van Gogh Museum. Open daily.
