The Willet-Holthuysen House
The Willet-Holthuysen House is located on the Herengracht, part of Amsterdam’s Canal District, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Due to its many stairs and the absence of a lift, the historic building is unfortunately not accessible for wheelchair users or mobility scooters. We are currently looking into how we can make the Willet-Holthuysen House better accessible for everyone.
