Having opened on Museumplein in 1973, the Van Gogh Museum is one of the most popular museums in the world, attracting visitors from every corner of the globe. Naturally, this is in large part due to it housing the largest collection of works by Vincent van Gogh – more than 200 paintings, 500 drawings and 700 of his letters.

Experience the legacy of Van Gogh in Amsterdam

For both locals and far-travelling visitors, the Van Gogh Museum is a unique and inspirational experience. Alongside his instantly recognisable impressionist works, such as his landscapes, self-portraits and still lifes – especially ‘Sunflowers’ – the museum provides opportunities to track the artist's development and compare his paintings to works by other artists from the 19th century – those who inspired him and those who drew inspiration from him.

Cutting-edge exhibitions and ideas

The museum was expanded in 1999, then entirely refurbished in 2013, ensuring that it remains a cutting-edge exhibition space for both the Van Gogh works and the impressive temporary exhibitions. The museum is also home to exceptional research facilities, art workshops for kids, and every Friday evening it stays open until 22:00, inviting musicians, DJs and other performers to share its public spaces with the artworks and visitors.
