About The Dylan Amsterdam
- The site held Amsterdam's first stone city theatre, the Schouwburg of Van Campen (opened 1638, architect Jacob van Campen); fire destroyed it in 1772, leaving the entrance gate guests still use.
- Rembrandt van Rijn sketched performers here; Antonio Vivaldi conducted the theatre orchestra in 1737 for the centenary.
- Restaurant Vinkeles occupies a former 18th-century bakery with original wood ovens and holds two Michelin stars.
- The hotel opened in 1999 on the Keizersgracht in the Nine Streets, with 41 rooms.
- Joost van den Vondel named the theatre Schouwburg and wrote Gijsbrecht van Aemstel for its 1638 opening, a play later revived on the same Keizersgracht ground.
