Amsterdam Sights

the Amsterdam Dungeon

the Amsterdam Dungeon True stories from Amsterdam's history come to life. Find yourself propelled into the dark ages and an era of torture, disease and death.

A unique feast of fun with history's horrible bits. Live actors, a ride, shows and special effects transport you back to those black bleak times. Are you brave enough?

4 themed stories:

  1. Council of Blood -- a glimpse into 16th century Holland and the primeval law enforcement that encased everyone's life in fear.
  2. Labyrinth of the Lost -- Amsterdam, before 1579, was a treacherous maze at night with no lighting to guide citizens through the streets. Narrow alleys and side-streets lead to precarious ledges and canals which many unfortunate people would accidentally stumble across.
  3. Reaper - Drop Ride to Doom -- Hold on tight as you plunge into the darkness, ride through hell and feel your heart race as the Reaper teases you with a playful grin on his bony features.
  4. Soul Merchants De VOC -- Learn about the VOC at the Amsterdam Dungeon and cringe at the horrifying conditions these voyages involved.
Enter the psychological whirlpool of the Amsterdam Dungeon and prepare to be overwhelmed by true stories of historical horror, spine-chilling rides and gruesome displays.
