It was an inspiring experience for our family. We could see not only the brilliance of an artist but also his vision and mission of his life. Artist painted and sketched not only his feelings but also gave an insight of rural life with their hardships and struggles. Truly an eye opener for all of us .

Booking the digital tickets was hassle-free, and visiting the Van Gogh Museum was a highlight for me. There was a pleasant number of visitors, the presentation of the paintings was excellent, and overall it was a cultural highlight of my vacation. Best regards.

What to expect

Van Gogh Museum

Step into a museum dedicated to the life and work of Vincent van Gogh, with galleries that trace his artistic journey. Move at your own pace as you explore the permanent collection, using your ticketed entry slot to avoid general on-the-day queues.

Features:

Follow Van Gogh's development across different periods of his career, viewing his paintings, drawings, and personal artefacts arranged to highlight changes in style and technique.

Use your self-guided Van Gogh Museum tour to set your own pace, spending more time in the sections or themes that interest you most.

Benefit from timed entry to the Van Gogh Museum, which manages visitor flow inside the building during your selected time slot.

Beyond the core Van Gogh collection, the museum also hosts rotating temporary exhibitions that expand on themes of art, history, and influence. During specific dates, you can access curated shows that connect Van Gogh's legacy with other artists and contemporary perspectives. Access all eligible exhibitions included with your ticket type, so you can explore both permanent and temporary displays in a single visit.

Use your self-guided visit to move between the permanent Van Gogh galleries and temporary exhibition spaces in any order you prefer.

Extras
