Rembrandt’s House
In 1639, Rembrandt, moves to the monumental building at number 4 Jodenbreestraat, in the heart of Amsterdam. He is still a young man of 33, just married to Saskia. They adore each other. This house is perfect for the ambitious couple. It is large, with space to live and work.
Rembrandt has everything going for him when he moves into his new house: a great love, a luxurious life and a successful career. But it won’t stay that way. Setbacks follow, both privately and financially. After 19 years he has to leave his home. He is then 52 years old. The house has now been returned to how it was in Rembrandt’s time. You can see how Rembrandt lived and worked, in good times as well as in bad times.
