Wander down the Dunne Bierkade and Paviljoensgracht and you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into another time. This historic part of The Hague is home to the Buitenmuseum — where the roots of Dutch painting are closer than ever. In the 17th century, this was the creative heart of the city. Legendary artists like Jan van Goyen, Jan Steen and Paulus Potter lived and worked right here. Their homes and studios are still open to visit, offering a rare glimpse into the past.
During Museumnacht Den Haag, the Buitenmuseum invites you in for an evening filled with art, atmosphere and history. Walk through rooms where masterpieces were once created, and feel the creative spirit that still lingers in the air.
Whether you’re an art enthusiast or simply curious, this is the perfect place to discover the rich and very real stories that shaped The Hague.
