Amsterdam’s Secret Village: The Begijnhof

The Begijnhof in Amsterdam is a beautiful portal to another world and time. A hidden Hofje, and one of the worst kept secrets in the city, however it’s worth a closer look to reveal some of its amazing beauty and significance. So come with me on a short and fun journey to take a look off the beaten tracks of the city center. I enjoy looking at the ghosts of Amsterdam, and there is more to come.

If you enjoy this film, take a look at several others in my collection that tie up nicely. BLOOD STREET – a Look at how the street got its name and the council of death. SECRET GARDENS – see some other hidden hofs in the city. SECRETS OF THE REDLIGHT DISTRICT to see the other original wooden house in the city. THE SECRET CHURCH – to see how catholics were forced underground. THE OLD CHURCH – Amsterdams livingroom. Another connection to the Alteration and the Miracle of Amsterdam.

I hope you enjoy my little films. I make these for fun to share my passion for my local city and history. Please like, subscribe, comment if you wish? I hope you like it. If enough support, I will develop more.
