Episode 8: Prostitution Information Centre

Episode 8: Prostitution Information Centre

At the corner of a narrow street right next to the Old church you can find Prostitution Information Centre. The former worker of Red Light District Mariska Majoor had opened it about 20 years ago. The initial idea of opening such centre was to provide women here with various and abundant information on the subject of prostitution, which includes working conditions, pricing, how to behave, what to do, legal aspects and so on. However, over the years, the centre has become much more than that. Now Mariska gives weekly tours around Red Light District, she also opened a small museum which shows a "historical brothel room". Moreover, she manages the workshops creating the "behind-the-window" experience. Mariska could teach you how to sit and how to behave in order to get client's attention. It is a lot of fun and provides one with real experience of sitting behind the window, which is truly unique. You can see the photos of the small museum and Mariska herself in our menu.
