Small, but cool and informative. See what it's really like to work the famous windows and hear insight from a previous worker via audio guide. Have a friend stay outside to get a picture of you in the famous red light district window!

Highly recommend! The museum does a nice job of exemplifying the pros and cons of sex work and of reminding people of sex workers’ humanity. You can expect audio and anecdotes from real sex workers, interactive components, and a variety of ways to engage with content (reading, listening, quizzes, film clips and props, posters, etc.).

If you are in Amsterdam you must have questions about the Red Light District. This museum of prostitution answers all. We took a brief stop to see and read all about the job of being a working girl in Amsterdam. There’s mixed reviews on this museum but for us we enjoyed it and were happy to get real answers. There’s one part of the museum where you can sit in a window and see how it feels to have passer-bys look at you. It’s a different experience but one we are glad we took.
