Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen stands in the Museumpark in Rotterdam, in the Netherlands. The museum is also known as the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum, and its address is Museumpark 18-20, 3015 CX Rotterdam.
It is one of the oldest museums in the Netherlands, and its collection spans art from the Middle Ages to the 21st century. That range makes it a good choice for visitors who want to see how styles and ideas have changed over many centuries under one roof.
What you can see
Among the collection are works by Van Gogh, Dalí and Mondrian, three artists whose work is widely recognised and whose different approaches sit well side by side. Visitors interested in a particular artist will find their work here, while others may simply enjoy moving from older pieces to modern ones.
