Wasn’t sure what to expect but thoroughly enjoyed this museum. Liked it was interactive with a narrative from a prostitute who told her stories so it was made a more real experience. Such a lot to see in such a small space.

We visited during October, and therefore not busy here. We bought tickets at the entrance for €14.50 each. Very interesting, but quite a small place. Audio guide devices provided for commentary.

I’d definitely recommend going here if you are planning on visiting the red light district. Doesn’t take too long but definitely interesting and the confessions wall at the end is hilarious and moving at the same time

Very interesting and informative. They addressed a lot of common questions and provided examples of the logistics and details like compensation. Also addressed the dark sides of sex work such as violence and trafficking. It’s a small museum though so won’t take up much time.

The museum is very small and in my opinion not very interesting, we were back out again in about 15 minutes. That's roughly a euro a minute. The sex museum is far better and costs the same price.

Was a very beautiful place to get the knowledge of how their life is in talk terms and to understand how the sex workers take care of themselves from health n being safe. Sad to read many many confessions. Wishing each a good future & life

Visiting the Red Light Secrets: Museum of Prostitution was a truly fascinating and eye-opening experience. The museum offers an honest, respectful, and thought-provoking look into a world that many people only ever see from the outside. I really appreciated how it combines history, personal stories, and interactive displays to shed light on the realities of sex work and the people behind it. Walking through the exhibits, especially seeing the recreated working rooms and hearing the voices of real workers, gave a powerful sense of understanding and empathy. The audio guide was engaging and informative, helping to challenge stereotypes while providing important social and historical context. It’s an experience that encourages compassion, awareness, and open-mindedness. I’d highly recommend it to anyone wanting to see a more human side of Amsterdam’s famous Red Light District.
