3. Bijbels Museum (Bible Museum)

CENTRAL CANAL RING.   Seeking to expand the biblical knowledge of visitors and to illustrate the influence of the age-old text on the people of the Netherlands, this informative museum is a must for religious scholars and those who delight in their faith and in history. Set in two remarkable, 17th-century buildings, the museum helps flesh out the world of the Bible and of the Levant and boasts period artifacts, temple models, significant printings of the Bible, and the artistic works of Dutch believers. Built from the collection of Leendert Schouten, the museum also offers lovely ceiling paintings and a private garden complete with plants known to the ancients.   (© 10Best)
