For Kids
There is so much to do for kids at Amsterdam Castle Muiderslot! Build, draw, watch the birds of prey or a theatre play, listen to audio tours and lots more.
Children’s audio tour
In the Tower Route, there’s an audio tour for children. They will learn all about how Muiderslot castle was defended. How did they keep the enemy at a distance? And what happened if danger approached? You can pick up the free audio tour in the courtyard. The story takes about 20 minutes and is spoken in English or Dutch. There’s another audiotour available in 9 languages through the Knight’s Route.
Enjoy the children’s quest
It is even more fun for children to discover the castle with the children’s quest ‘Discover and Do’. Bring an adult to explore the castle and gardens and complete the assignments. Good to know about this quest:
– It consists of a set of cards with activities.
– The children’s quest is great for children aged 6 through 11 with guidance from an adult.
– The children’s quest is available from the cash desk and costs €2,- per child.
Falconer
The falconer brings his birds of prey to the tournament field behind the castle on a regular basis. Visit the falconer’s station, learn all about falconry in the old days, and see the beautiful raptors up close. Would you like to know when the falconer is present and what to expect? Read more.
