An original Picasso in the Vondelpark

During your highlights and hidden gems of Amsterdam tour. It’s easy to walk right past this concrete sculpture at the southern end of the Vondelpark without realising that it is, in fact, by Picasso himself. Created in 1965 as part of an outdoor sculpture exhibition to mark the 100th anniversary of the Vondelpark, the ‘Figure découpée l’Oiseau’ (‘The Bird’). It was donated to Amsterdam by Picasso after the exhibition and has remained in the same spot ever since.

Little houses set into the Park Plaza Victoria hotel

In the 19th century, the Park Plaza Victoria planned to build their own hotel opposite Central Station. However an elderly owner of the two tiny 17th-century houses dug her clogs in, and refused to sell up.  They simply built the hotel around her houses. The houses are still visible that date from 1602. Park Plaza Victoria Amsterdam, Amsterdam Centrum
