Although the collection teaches the history of sex, the museum definitely also has some elements of a theme park in it, where the younger teenagers will laugh and giggle. Like the two giant phallus's standing erect and the woman's scream of joy from the speakers, will certainly attracts everybody's attention.
This museum managed to be interesting, playful, without being blunt pornographic. It is well organized and worth a visit if you like to know more about the history of sex.
The Museum is a very short walk of only 4 minutes from the central station. Just go straight out of the Station into Damrak. If you want to go from your hotel or bed and breakfast you can take any bus or tram which goes to the central station. |
