Streetart Frankey in Amsterdam Oost
Reported gone
Holle Bolle Gijs is the ever-hungry figure at the Efteling theme park who swallows the rubbish visitors feed him and rewards them with a loud thank you. Generations of Dutch children grew up posting their litter into his open mouth, which has made him one of the best-loved characters in the park.
Holle Bolle Gijs is a Streetart Frankey artwork on Ptolemaeusstraat, in Amsterdam Oost.
It is one of 28 Streetart Frankey works on our map in Oost. 4 other works are still in place within about ten minutes on foot, so this one is easy to combine with a short Frankey walk.
Visitors or our own team have reported that this work is no longer there. Street art is temporary by nature, and Frankey's small sculptures are sometimes removed or taken. We keep the spot on the map so you can see where it was, and the works listed below are still in place nearby.
Our guides know where Frankey's pieces hide. Ask us for a private street art walking tour and we will build the route around the art, Frankey's work very much included.
