exellent small exhibtions in a beautiful setting This museum has varying expositions and is a fine place for experiencing different aspects of beauty. Fashion by Dutch designers, Photography, local artists' works etc. I have yet to experience any exhibition not worth a visit.

At the end of our visit, I helped some of the museum staff on some technical issue with the 3D printer in the lobby. The museum ladies were very nice and courteous.
We really...
