Amsterdam The Rembrandt House Museum, Het Rembrandthuis, Rembrandt Huis.


The Rembrandt House Museum (Museum Het Rembrandthuis), Jodenbreestraat 4 , Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Het Rembrandthuis is a biographical museum in the monumental house where the painter lived and worked between 1639 and 1658. The building was constructed in 1606 and 1607 in what was then known as the Sint Anthonisbreestraat. The street did not come to be called the Jodenbreestraat until later. In about 1627-28 the house was given a new façade, a triangular corniced pediment, the height of modernity at the time. And another floor was added. The reconstruction was probably overseen by Jacob van Campen, who later made his name as the architect of Amsterdam Town Hall (now the Royal Palace on Dam Square). ()
