Inside Maria Montessori's Amsterdam home: a Journey Through Her Study

Step into an unknown piece of history in Amsterdam — join us for a unique and inspiring visit to the last home of the Italian pedagogue Maria Montessori.

As part of the Case della Memoria initiative, we invite you to experience a guided, carefully curated tour that brings her legacy vividly to life.

During your visit, you will explore the study where Montessori spent her final years, gaining insight into its history and atmosphere. Our guides will take you on a journey through her remarkable life and pioneering work in education, while also offering a rare glimpse into the rich legacy preserved on site. These collections reveal not only her ideas, but the enduring impact they continue to have around the world.

You will also learn about the ongoing work of the organisation she founded, and how her vision continues to shape education today.

To ensure an intimate and engaging experience, we offer three afternoon time slots:

13:00 to 14:00 — Dutch tour

14:30 to 15:30 — Italian tour

16:00 to 17:00 — English tour

Practical information
If you are travelling by public transport, the location is easily accessible via tram line 2. You can get off at the stop “Valeriusplein,” which is just a short walk away.

If you are coming by car, please note that this is a paid parking zone.

Please note that Maria Montessori’s study is located two flights up and there is no lift; visitors with limited mobility should take this into consideration.

Join us for an afternoon of discovery, reflection, and inspiration in a place where history, memory, and innovation come together.
