Het Rijksmuseum

'Het Rijksmuseum'' in Amsterdam is one of 16 Dutch national museums dedicated to arts and history. The museum is located at the Museum Square in the borough Amsterdam South, close to the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, and the Concertgebouw.

Sesamstraat's Audiotour sounds through Rijksmuseum. It is a special tour for childeren. In 2001 they made a special audiotape with the tour on it, that you can rent (with a walkman) for €2,50. But it was all in Dutch. The text was written by Chris Winsemius

You could choose between a tape with Pino, Tommie or Ieniemienie and they are helped by Lot from Sesamstraat. They all show you `De Nachtwacht´ (The Nightwatch) and many more famous paintings through a special journey. This is done with jokes, games and they even wrote a special song for when a child is standing infront of `De Nachtwacht´! "Hello, I am Pino. And specially for Lot´s birthday I´ve made a beautiful painting! It hangs somewhere in this museum. But when you follow the paintingdrops on the floor.... you will find it!" And with these words, the tour began.

In 2004 the audiotour got updated. It was become availble in 5 languages and was now digital on an mp3 player this time.

For the 30th anniversary celebration of Sesamstraat in 2005, The Rijkksmuseum had on it's website a specially created game. There you could interactively search for the characters in famous paintings. They where digitially hidden behind persons or things.
