Bijbels Museum

Fodor's Review:

Although this museum does indeed have a massive collection of Bibles -- as well as exhibits with archaeological finds from the Middle East and models of ancient temples that evoke biblical times -- what probably draws more people is the building itself. The two enjoined canal houses (dating from 1662) have had their interiors restored, including incredible 18th-century ceiling paintings by Jacob de Wit.
