Visited the museum because of the exhibition of Gianni Versace Retrospective. It’s a must visit for all fashion lovers. Totally worth the 5 hours driving.

It’s a beautiful museum itself, the architecture design is amazing both inside and outside.

Wrt the Gianni Versace Retrospective exhibition, not only are the clothes very expressive, all the mannequins are also exquisite. A true visual feast. Lovely to “walk through” his work so close-up in respective timeline.

Pop stars, Pop culture, and Pop Art are three important aspects in Gianni Versace's work, and you can feel that across the exhibition. Subcultures that inspired his designs are well explained and demonstrated.

Amazing to see some of his most iconic pieces and designs of all time so close up.

The museum is very accessible by public transport, it’s just outside of the train station. Or by car, you can’t park on the street of the museum, as it only allowed for one hour. But there are many close by parkings available. If you have museum cards, you only need to pay €5.- to enter. Children can enter for free.

Highly recommend if you plan a day to visit the north of the Netherlands. It’s right in the center, so you can also enjoy the city of Groningen.
