About
Museum Geelvinck was situated from its opening 1991 till the end of 2015 in a canal-side mansion, the Geelvinck Hinlopen Huis in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. This patrician mansion, close to the Rembrandtplein, was built for Albert Geelvinck (1647–1693) and Sara Hinlopen (1660–1749), then in an attractive and new laid-out section of the city towards the Amstel. In the year 1687 the couple moved into this double wide canal house on the Herengracht 518, with storage rooms in the cellar, under the attic and in the warehouse on the Keizersgracht 633, now the museum entrance.
