Multatuli Museum, Amsterdam

Multatuli means "I suffered a lot and was used as a pseudonym for the Dutch writer Eduard Douwes Dekker, who was around more than a century ago during the era of Dutch colonialism. His life experience during this period influenced his work and has a great impact even today, as a result of his most famous book, Max Havelaar - one of the most important classics in the history of Dutch literature. This museum houses all of his works and some of his personal belongings and an amount of furniture (his sofa, for example). Go back in time with Multatuli!
