Van Gogh Museum
TEST — Museums (preview) · Amsterdam
The Van Gogh Museum on Museumplein in Amsterdam holds the world's largest collection of works by Vincent van Gogh. The permanent exhibition follows his life and work from the early Dutch years to the last months in France, with famous paintings such as The Potato Eaters, The Bedroom and Sunflowers, alongside drawings and letters. Works by contemporaries who inspired him or were inspired by him are shown next to his own. The museum stands a few steps from the Rijksmuseum and the Stedelijk Museum, so the three are easy to combine in one day. Entry is with timed tickets for a date and starting time. On this page you find our tickets for the Van Gogh Museum, practical information and answers to common questions.
