The buildings are so intertwined the museums they house flow into each other which makes for a unique dynamic. Apart from the wealth of art and culture these museums have to offer, you can enjoy a great day out at the museum quarter.

Vincent van Gogh

Born and raised in Brabant Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) is famous for his unique way of painting. In recent years he has gained a more prominent role in the 'Noordbrabants Museum'. The landscape and population of his native Brabant have influenced the themes he painted later in life. Which is reason enough to devote an exposition towards van Gogh’s source of inspiration. Starting from march 26, 2021 the museum opens a permanent exhibit  called 'Van Gogh in Brabant', which will house paintings, letters, pictures, animations and other objects. The story of Van Gogh as a developing artist is told, which explores the relationship between the artist and his beloved Brabant.
