A museum about the Amsterdam School architectural style, housed in a building that is probably the city's best example of that style entrance.
Het Schip is a building complex in the Spaarndammerbuurt neighbourhood of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The complex in the architectural style of the Amsterdam School was designed by Michel de Klerk in 1919. It originally contained 102 homes for the working class, a small meeting hall, a post office, and an elementary school. Since 2001, the former school and post office are used as a museum about the Amsterdam School.

Not too far west of the Vondelpark, but much quieter and larger in size.
