Condomerie, Amsterdam

Condomerie, Amsterdam

You won’t find this shop on many must-visit lists, but trust us—it’s worth popping into as you stroll through Amsterdam’s Red Light District. Meet the world’s first dedicated condom store, a quirky little spot that’s all about keeping things safe and fun. Surprisingly, its shop window often draws more curious glances than the ones with the ladies of the night next door.

This isn’t your average store—or a museum, for that matter. The Condomerie elevates the humble condom into an art form, offering an incredible variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and flavors. From the standard brands you know to some truly out-there designs, they’ve got it all. But here’s the twist: not everything they sell is for actual use. Some of their more colorful creations are purely for show, and even come with a disclaimer. Fancy paint and latex don’t always mix, so read the fine print before you get carried away.

It’s not just about the condoms, though. The shop also stocks souvenirs, postcards, and the kind of gag gifts that’ll make you the life of any bachelorette party. Looking to leave a friend in stitches, questioning reality? This is your spot.

You might wonder how a place like the Condomerie keeps the doors open when many visitors just come in for a laugh. But hey, this is Amsterdam. Anything goes. Whether you’re here to shop, giggle, or just marvel at the sheer creativity on display, make sure to swing by before this oddball attraction ever disappears—if it ever does.
