Located in the center of Amsterdam, Venustempel (the temple of Venus) is the world's first and oldest museum of the world. The museum analyzes many aspects of sensual love throughout the ages, presenting an extensive collection of erotic images, paints, recordings, photos and much more. The great collection was collected personally by museum owners and is permanently present in the 17th century property on Damrak.

The Sex Museum in Amsterdam

The museum about a sensitive area of human sexuality is located in the busiest point of Amsterdam, on Damrak Street, right in front of the Central Station, in the midst of traffic madness.

Interesting figures
Once you get inside, you realize that the Sex Museum is trying to combine their rich collection of artifacts with the elements of the attraction park. Its full name is the Sex Museum - Venus Temple. And you will see Venus's face at the entrance. Also full-body wax figures of Mata Hari with his male partners and Marilyn Monroe, obviously with the air pumped constantly under the actress's skirt. And two huge plastic flags that stand up will give you an unusual photo opportunity, because you are allowed to take photos throughout the show.

Atmosphere of the museum
In each of the museum's tiny chambers, they will be accompanied by the sounds of hidden loudspeakers. The rooms have different names - Mata Hari, Marquis de Sade, Rudolf Valentino, Oscar Wilde, Marquise de Pompadour and so on. In the Marquis de Sade, the repetitive sounds of the steam car, mixed with the laughter of women, come from the speaker on the ceiling. This old-fashioned multimedia approach and a specific sense of humor, as well as an outdated aesthetic of the museum's interior, places the Amsterdam Museum of Sex somewhere near the provincial market fair.

Collection of sex museums
However, we suggest you see through the aesthetics of the presentation and appreciate the collection, which is rich and interesting. The Sex Museum over the course of more than 20 years of existence has not only managed to collect hundreds of interesting art objects, unique objects and rare old photographs, but avoiding the pogrom of pornography, managed to bring them together, in an organized and interesting way.

A rich and interesting collection of objects about human sexuality: art, as well as photographs, porcelain, figures, plates, weapons and many other elements - all that is sometimes composed in an old-fashioned presentation.
