This particular example is a good indicator of the density of Rijksmonuments in Amsterdam by the way. I can imagine that Multichill hasn't found a way to handle this type of categorization.

not the reason for the mentioned category, that was placed by the uploader
it seems, and is indeed wrong. But that is the well known confusion between
monuments and heritage, where sometimes monument is used for heritage.
Not sure if Multichill has all bots still running that do the
auto-categorisation. I do see the location is added.
