Discover one of Amsterdam’s most charming and unusual museums with a visit to The Cat Cabinet (KattenKabinet).
Located inside a beautiful historic canal house along the Herengracht, this unique museum celebrates cats through art, culture, and history. Created by Bob Meijer in memory of his beloved cat, John Piermont Morgan, the museum features an impressive collection of cat-inspired paintings, posters, sculptures, photographs, and decorative objects.
As you explore the elegant rooms, you'll encounter works by famous artists including Rembrandt, Pablo Picasso, Toulouse-Lautrec, Théophile Alexandre Steinlen, and Henriette Ronner-Knip, all showcasing the enduring fascination with feline companions throughout art history.
The museum itself is part of the experience, with beautifully preserved period interiors, antique furnishings, decorative ceilings, and grand canal house architecture offering a glimpse into Amsterdam’s historic past.
Adding to the charm, several resident cats often roam freely throughout the museum. While their presence cannot be guaranteed, visitors may have the opportunity to meet these friendly feline hosts during their visit.
To enhance your Amsterdam experience, this package also includes an Amsterdam City Audio Guide, allowing you to discover the city's most famous landmarks, neighbourhoods, and hidden gems at your own pace.
A 1 GB eSIM is also included, helping you stay connected while accessing maps, tickets, and travel information throughout your trip.
