A chance to see inside the mid-18th century Huguenot House, mainly occupied by the diamond merchants and jewellers Prins & Prins . There's no pressure to buy on the tour, during which you can see the remains of neoclassical wall paintings depicting the 19th-century owners, the van Wielligh family. Most of the displays are in the basement where the jewellers also work.
