To see how the wealthy lived during the 17th century, visit this opulent 1687-built private mansion and its magnificent classical gardens linking the former Keizersgracht coach house with the main Herengracht house, and incorporating a herb garden, English garden and French formal garden with Amsterdam's largest private pond. English-speaking guides are on hand to show you the mansion's rooms.
Concerts, many using the estate's vintage instruments, take place on Sundays at 4.45pm (tickets per adult child from €18/12).
