Levend Paardenmuseum: the art of riding around the arena

The Levend Paardenmuseum is located in De Hollandsche Manege in Amsterdam. It combines a museum presentation on equestrian culture with the setting of the riding school.

Plan your visit ↗

Clothing and movement

The description mentions classical horsemanship and the clothing that goes with it. Together they offer a way into how riding is practised and presented; the museum’s explanation can clarify unfamiliar terms.

Watching a demonstration

A carousel show is mentioned for Sunday. Such a programme is tied to a fixed time and possibly different ticket conditions; confirm that it is currently going ahead before planning your visit around it.

The riding school as a place

The arena and surrounding spaces shape part of the experience. Follow instructions during activities, and do not treat ordinary riding-school hours as a schedule for access to the museum route.

Before you go

Check museum opening, show time and holiday exceptions separately. Discuss in advance which parts of the building are accessible for your group.
