About

Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, located on Museumpark 18–20 in Rotterdam, is a landmark Dutch art museum founded in 1849. Renowned for its vast collection spanning medieval to contemporary Dutch masterpieces, the museum’s iconic Van der Steur building showcases early 20th‑century architecture. Although the main building remains closed for a major renovation into 2030, the Depot—open daily from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.—offers visitors a unique glimpse of the museum’s 150,000‑item storage facility and the restaurant Renilde. Visitors can book tickets and time slots via the museum’s online booking system. The museum’s reopening is highly anticipated, promising a reinvigorated cultural destination in Rotterdam’s heart.
