Sex Museum Venus Tempel, Amsterdam
The Venus Tempel in Amsterdam was opened in 1985. It was the first sex museum in the whole world! Other sex museums have opened since that time, in cities such as Paris and Berlin.
Inside the 17th century building located on the Damrak, you will find a large collection of erotic paintings, recordings and statues as well as a few special attractions. If you pay attention, you will also learn many new nicknames for private parts.
The artistic and historic objects offer a good insight into the history of sex. You will be surprised by the large collection. It shows that man's view on sex has changed dramatically over the years. You will learn more about the Greek and Roman times as well as the taboos existent in medieval and Victorian times. Nowadays people tend to speak more easily about sex. The wild sixties have especially contributed to this.
