Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen

Brilliant museum with a lovely sense of art.

I went with my family was such a great time I enjoyed it alot

a very beautiful place

The museum closed in May 2019 for a years long renovation. Part of the collection can now be seen in other museums in Rotterdam. See the Boijmans website for more information. Next to the museum a new depot is being build. Even though they are still busy building this depot, the building itself is already interesting enough to take a look! In the gigantic mirrored walls of the cup shaped building you can see the skyline of Rotterdam centre. The depot will be opened in 2021 and will be open to the public. See also my review of the depot.

Neither my Hotel nor the Tourist Office knew that this museum has been closed for a year and gave me an extravagant explanation of what was on display. If it had been open it might have saved my abortive visit to the Kunsthal (see review), sadly that was not to be. The Museum should ensure that the Tourist Information Office and tourist hotels are aware of the situation.
