CULTURE AND RECREATION Amsterdam School Museum De Dageraad Amsterdam School Museum De Dageraad in Amsterdam Zuid is one of the top architectural highlights of the Amsterdam School style from the early twentieth century. The building was designed by Michel de Klerk and Piet Kramer and attracts visitors from all over the world. The permanent exhibition tells about the development of Berlage’s Plan Zuid. Every hour, visitors can take a guided tour of the neighbourhood. Craft workshops and lectures are held at Museum De Dageraad, and many excursions through the neighbourhood depart. The Amsterdam School is an important movement in the field of crafts, architecture and public housing. The style can be seen in a large part of Amsterdam, and it is image-determining for the city. There are two museums of the Amsterdam School in Amsterdam: Museum Het Schip in Amsterdam-West and Museum De Dageraad in Amsterdam-Zuid. Both museums take their name from the beautiful iconic Amsterdam School buildings in which they are located. Because the Amsterdam School can be found all over the city, themed walks, bicycle tours, craft workshops and educational programmes are organised and take place throughout the city.
