In anticipation of an extensive renovation and renovation, the museum temporarily opens its doors for the exhibition Rembrandt, the photographer. Now extended until 5 January 2025!

Rembrandt, the photographer

It is the largest collection of Rembrandt etchings ever to be seen in the Netherlands. From 22 June to 3 November 2024, more than 200 masterful etchings from the collection of Rembrandt collector Jaap Mulders will fill our empty museum. Due to the delayed renovation, we are taking the opportunity to be a Rembrandt Museum for four months. In addition to Rembrandt’s masterful technique, the exhibition also highlights his almost photographic compositions. Rembrandt had an eye for the perfect picture like no other artist of his time: like a photographer avant la lettre.

Tip: combined ticket

Make a day of it in Hoorn! In addition to the Rembrandt exhibition, visit our museum attraction Discover the story of Hoorn in the Statenpoort on Nieuwstraat. A spectacular multimedia show with two podwalks through the historic city centre.
