About This Area
WATERLOO SQUARE
This area was once known as the Jewish Quarter of Amsterdam and must have been one of the most lively parts of the city. However, after World War II, most of the historic buildings were demolished. In the 1980s, a modern structure called the Stopera was built in the open space by the Amstel river. Today, the neighbourhood is home to the Jewish Museum and several impressive monuments.
