π³π± Museum Hopping in the Netherlands #03 | Museum de Fundatie, Zwoll
ποΈ Where classic meets contemporary under a golden bird! π Museum de Fundatie Blijmarkt 20, 8011 NE Zwolle β¨ Why This Museum Stands Out β’ Striking architecture - A historic palace topped with a futuristic oval dome (nicknamed "The Egg") and crowned by a golden bird sculpture π¦ β’ Strong focus on modern/contemporary art - Particularly paintings with bold graphic styles β’ Thought-provoking temporary exhibits - During my visit: Powerful works by an Iranian female artist addressing identity and displacement π¨ β’ Noticed a trend: European museums heavily emphasize political themes (minority voices, female artists, conflict zones) ποΈ Visitor Info β° Hours: Tue-Sun 11:00-17:00 π° Tickets: β¬15 (adults), free with Museumkaart π From Groningen: 1hr by direct train π Zwolle Bonus Attractions 1οΈβ£ Waanders In de Broeren - That breathtaking bookstore in a 15th-century church πβͺ (5min walk) 2οΈβ£ Beeldentuin Anningahof - Outdoor sculpture park in the suburbs πΏπ³ 3οΈβ£ Sassenpoort - Instagram-worthy medieval city gate πΈ π‘ Curator's Notes "The permanent collection features van Gogh, Mondrian & Magritte, but the real magic happens in their rotating exhibitions that challenge perspectives." #NetherlandsMuseums #Zwolle #ArtAndArchitecture #ContemporaryArt #DutchCulture #TravelDeep #MuseumDeFundatie
