Hash Marihuana & Hemp Museum in Amsterdam

One of the best museums I've ever visited and as a museum nerd I've visited quite a few of them. And it wasn't because it has something extraordinary, but because it is made very convenient and enjoyable in a simple way. The highlight was this cool gadget – an audio guide shaped like a phone. At the beginning you pick your language, and it takes you through the museum. The different sections have chips with numbers; you just tap on them and it explains what you're seeing. It's like a personal tour at your own pace – best of both worlds! The staff were also amazing, very chill but at the same time very kind and genuinely happy to help (definitely the best staff from all the places in Amsterdam that I've visited). Aslo the content in the museum was very informative and it made me aware of a lot of things i didn't know about the cannabis plant, especially about hemp. This museum definitely does justice to this precious plant, shifting the narrative from it being a drug for lazy stoned junkies, to its actual value.

This is a two part museum experience! The history in the Netherlands is vast. The culture us rich, and they care about the preservation of art and history. Marijuana has a very interesting part of our civilization. Through our needs in the medical fields, quality products, pop culture, and way of life, marijuana has been intertwined into our lives. This little museum will give you a glimpse into that history. Within the red-light district. Takes about an hour.

Very informative and well put together presentation on the past, present and future of cannabis. A must see in Amsterdam.

Super interesting and amazing facts, you don’t have to like weed to enjoy it. My boyfriend and I got baked beforehand and it felt like a little quest when one of the workers explained that the museum is separated into 2 and you go down the street to enter the next part of the exhibit, and also pop into the cafe next door and get a free drink. Loved the experience, definitely recommend

Very informative and detailed, even though the space is small, there’s a lot to see and listen to over the audio which has several languages. It’s also one ticket for 2 museums so don’t forget about the second museum which includes a lot of the industrial uses for hemp. We also got free samples of hemp seed tea from the store Hempstory between the two museums

The Hash, Marijuana and Hemp Museum. It was a cute museum with a little bit of everything. It's a bit on the smaller side but has a lot to see. Was nice to get the history lesson and to learn the difference between Marijuana and Hemp.

Surprisingly interesting museum. Good audio guide. Generous opening hours

Very interesting and good guided tour (audio guide in several languages). You get to know the history of hemp production and usage. Additionally different cultural aspects regarding marihuana are explained. This all is rounded up by facing current political situations in Europe and Northern America. This museum is the only place in the Netherlands where full grown hemp plants are shown during growth (with screen protection). Definitely worth a visit.

Very interesting museum in 2 parts. Lots of information with the audioguide available in many different languages. For a small sized museum there was a lot to see and learn about. Certainly worth the very cheap price of 9€ per ticket ! Defenitly recommand if you are visiting Amsterdam ! Shows you that 1 plant can do so many things and that there is so much more to it than just calling it a 'drug'.

Very cool place. You can learn a lot about weed and different drugs. Also, they provide free audio guides in many languages.
Update: went there a second time. Very nice place. I would still highly recommend to visit it👍

I got new knowledge about the good and bad sides of marijuana. And i really like the audio guide, it was very helpful for me.
Value for money.
The sensai seeds shop inside the museum have a good collection of seeds, and the salesman have good product knowledge and soo friendly

Very informative, love the design and how everythings laid out. Friendly staff, good audiotour, no drinks!! My bad haha.

Great place, lots of great information and pictures. Loved the live grow. Didn't use the handheld information device much but was a nice touch if we'd have had more time. Staff were friendly and fun people. Wouldn't go again just us because wasn't huge so feel I have seen it now but was a great experience and we feel happy to have gone, would probably take friends/family and highly recommend to everyone.

This place is amazing! I wasn't expecting so much in the beginning, but all the information is just amazing, I did learn a lot, there are so many things we don't know about this topic, was really nice! I highly recommend it

Really nice, we learned lots of new information. The museum was really interactive and audioguides are included in multiple languages. We even took free photos on our way out! I recommend to everyone, smokers or not

Another unique museum Amsterdam has to offer. I learnt a lot and I will definitely recommend you to visit this small museum. They provide you accurate information about this incredible plant. I feel more museums like this should be open to promote drug education.

Super fun experience! You learn a lot (please check the quotes of famous people on the wall by the plants, absolutely hilarious). Exhibition is in two parts, a museum and a gallery, vedy well laid out. Right amount of information, worth the price (generally inexpensive). In addition, you get a discount for any purchases in their shop which offer a wide selection of seeds, oils, and many more.

Great little place to visit, especially if you want to fill an hour of your day to check something cool out. Wish it was a little bit bigger, so there was more to see and learn about. Staff were super nice on arrival and departure. The guys working at the exit were amazing and super helpful!

Brilliant experience love the seedbank on the exit lots of different strains

It was really nice to know more about marihuana, not just that u can use it for fun, but u can make much more serious things with it!
