Museums in Rotterdam
Rotterdam has dozens of museums with leading permanent collections and surprising exhibitions, ranging from modern art to historical artefacts, from architecture to photography and from historical ships to exotic animals. The area around the Museumpark, in the heart of town, is particularly rich in museums. Additionally an attractive route runs from the Museumpark to the Leuvehaven,it is the cozy Witte de With Straat with the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art. Photography enthusiasts can indulge themselves at the Dutch Photo Museum. Some of the Rotterdam museums are among the best in the world, such as the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum and the Wereld Museum (World Museum).
There are a number of museums in Rotterdam that exhibit Rotterdam in the Second World War (WWII), such as the War Resistance Museum (Oorlogsverzetmuseum), the Marines Museum (Mariniersmuseum) and the Museum of Coastal Defence (Kustverdedigingsmuseum). Also some off the lesser well-known museums are worth a visit, such as the Public Transport Museum (Openbaar Vervoer Museum) and the Correct Radio Museum (Rotterdams Radio Museum).
Most museums in Rotterdam offer special activities and days for children. |
