Bickersgracht

The Bickersgracht (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈbɪkərsˌxrɑxt]) is a canal in the center of Amsterdam at Westelijke Eilanden (Western Islands), but also a street.

The Bickersgracht runs in north-south direction between Bickerseiland and Prinseneiland.

East of the canal and the former location of the shipyards runs a public road.

A number of shipyards, sheds and places to store timber were erected along the Bickersgracht and Westerdok.

In the middle of the island a house with a tower was built for the shipping magnate Bicker.
