Parking near Marnixstraat
Prebooking
Marnixstraat is a street in Amsterdam along the western border of the Jordaan district in the city centre. The street is located between Haarlemmerplein and Leidseplein. On Marnixstraat, you will find Marnixplein and the 2 Marnixplantsoenen.
Marnixstraat was named in 1872 after Philips van Marnix, lord of Saint Aldegonde (1540-1598). Marnix was one of William of Orange's advisers and possibly poet of the Wilhelmus, our national anthem. Previously, this was the Schans. The Schans was given a variety of uses and buildings without a coherent plan. The 3 lower buildings opposite the Tweede Marnixplantsoen show this former situation.
In 1871, the housing complexes on the west side of Marnixstraat were built as a private initiative by J.F. Schutte. Along the Marnixkade, he had middle-class houses built. These were porch houses intended for working-class families. A bit further south, the Amsterdamsche Vereeniging tot het bouwen van Arbeiderswoningen built three large housing complexes for workers.
On Marnixstraat, there are a number of interesting buildings worth visiting. In 1883, the former school building on the corner of Marnixstraat 2 and Marnixkade 2 was built. This is now a national monument. In addition, Police Station Raampoort is a national monument designed by W. Springer in 1888. Another special building is Q-Park Europarking. The building was designed by Piet Zanstra and completed in 1971. So there are many other special buildings on Marnixstraat, all of which have a separate story to tell.
