The buildings of Museumhuizen Focus are open a few times a month. Here you won’t see a completely furnished building, but smaller exhibitions focusing on a specific point of interest within the house.

Ornate plasterwork, gilt leather, gilded woodwork and large fireplaces reflect the atmosphere in Monnickendam’s old town hall. The great hall with gold leather wallpaper and floral ornaments makes a striking impression, and the large magnificent staircase is absolutely an eye-catcher. When you enter this building, it’s hard to believe you are not in one of the Amsterdam Grand Canal houses.
