Rijksmuseum
The grand stage for the art and history of the Netherlands, a majestic journey that culminates before Rembrandt's 'The Night Watch'.
The Rijksmuseum is the national museum of the Netherlands, dedicated to telling the story of the nation through 800 years of art and objects. Its heart is the Gallery of Honour, a veritable cathedral of painting that presents the masters of the Dutch Golden Age. The journey culminates in front of the monumental and dynamic 'Night Watch' by Rembrandt, but along the way one encounters intimate and luminous masterpieces like Vermeer's 'The Milkmaid' and the lively portraits of Frans Hals, in a complete narrative of Dutch cultural richness.
