Una passeggiata carina in un comprensorio ora residenziale ma un tempo alloggio delle cosiddette Beghine, donne sole e devote che decidevano di vivere insieme in piccole case vicine.

Interesting courtyard containing the oldest house in Amsterdam and a church that you can visit - worth checking out while you’re in Amsterdam!

This should be a quiet and peaceful place, a hidden gem where you can escape the hectic city life. Definitely worth a visit but during the summer season it gets pretty crowded by tourists.

There are two ways in: one through an inconspicuous door in the square, the other through an alleyway.

"Aside from the beautiful Amsterdam facades and relative seclusion that give the courtyard a luxurious feel, the sanctuary also contains a church, a hidden church." -Hidden Stories

It is a beautiful old place in middle Amsterdam where time stopped! And still only ladies live here! Try to join if possible a concert in the English church if you can!
