Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is one of the finest art museums in Europe, with a superb collection of renown works dating from the Old Masters to contemporary art. It is an ideal place to see how art has developed, and how different artists have influenced each other and the culture around them.


The unique setting juxtaposes modern art against earlier movements, with Impressionist or Old Master works snugly sharing a wall with the garish colours of Pop Art and the sleek lines of Minimalism. There is an entire wing dedicated to Surrealism, with works by Dali, Duchamp and Man Ray, which will leave you struggling to maintain a grip on reality. With over 800 years of art history contained with its walls, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is a must-go for artists and art enthusiasts.
