Van Gogh Museum

It holds the world's largest Van Gogh collection, around 200 paintings and 500 drawings that the painter's family kept after his death. The main building, by Gerrit Rietveld, opened in 1973; Kisho Kurokawa's oval extension is used for temporary exhibitions.

The galleries follow his life in order: the dark peasant scenes of Nuenen, the Paris years, the light of Arles with Sunflowers and The Bedroom, and his final months in Saint-Rémy and Auvers. There are also letters to his brother Theo and works by the painters who shaped him. A major renovation is planned from 2028, with partial closures.
