About 20-35 minutes, but you're more than welcome, so take your time to see everything.
The Torture Museum is located right in the center of Amsterdam, at Singel 449. The Torture Museum is the perfect getaway in Amsterdam!
Until a few centuries ago, every European city had a scaffold on the market and a gallows field at the gate.
The pain bench under the town hall was a common method of sharp interrogation; executioner work was a recognized craft.
Church lawyers designed special remedies against the exceptional crime of witchcraft and heresy.
The Spanish Inquisition used an extensive arsenal of instruments to eliminate this evil
The Torture Museum provides a vivid picture of this painful past.
The international exhibition “Punishments and Judgments in the Middle Ages” includes more than 40 penal instruments from various parts of Europe, from the Inquisition Chair to the Guillotine.
These are illustrated with engravings and explained with historical background
We are open from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m.
