Olympic Staduim Experience in Amsterdam
The Olympic Experience is an interactive multimedia exhibition devoted to Dutch sport and the Olympic Games. Situated at the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam, which hosted the Games way back in 1928. |
The stadium is celebrating its 80th anniversary and was the home to Amsterdam's Ajax football club until they moved to the ArenA in 1996. The stadium has since been renovated to house the Olympic Experience museum (opened in 2005) and also hosts various athletics meetings including the Dutch championships.
The exhibition contains a collection of Olympic torches and medals and has films and photos of historic moments in Dutch sport. It takes a look at the role of diet, training and technology in sport and there are some 'hands-on' activities for children.
The Olympic Experience is open from 1100 to 1700 from Tuesday to Sunday. Entry costs €5 for adults, €4 for 4-12 year olds, under 4's free. You get free entry with a MuseumKaart.
You can reach the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam Zuid by taking trams 24 or 16.
