Insider tips for visiting STRAAT Museum

  • Use the free ferry: The fastest way from Amsterdam Central Station is the free NDSM ferry behind the station. The crossing takes about 15 minutes and drops you a 3–4 minute walk from the museum.
  • Allow enough time: STRAAT displays 180+ large murals across a huge shipyard warehouse. Most visitors need 60–90 minutes to properly explore the galleries and upper viewing areas.
  • Head to the Panorama Deck early: The upper-level deck offers a full overhead view of the exhibition hall, one of the best photo spots in the museum.
  • Dress for the temperature: The main exhibition hall is not heated, so it can feel cold in winter. Wearing layers makes longer visits more comfortable.
  • Explore NDSM Wharf afterwards: The surrounding area is filled with outdoor murals, sculptures, and creative studios. Walking around the wharf adds another 30–45 minutes of street art discovery.
