What to do and see in Den Bosch, North Brabant Province: The Best Museums

The body of work produced by Hieronymus Bosch can be found in museums and collections across the world. But the only place to find high-quality reproductions of all of his works is the Jheronimus Bosch Art Center in the city where the late-Mediaeval painter lived and worked his whole life. Come and admire the impressive exhibition set in a magnificent church building and you'll understand one visitor's summary of the experience: "I’ve learned a lot of Jerome Bosch. He is a great, and the most creative painter ever in history. This is a museum must see." Barely a quarter of an hour's walk from the station and just five minutes from St. John's Cathedral, this original and refreshing museum is home to all of Bosch's works and more. The reproductions can be found on the ground floor, while the other floors house collections of contemporary art, all inspired by Bosch himself. You can also take the lift to the very top floor of the tower for a fantastic view over the city.

This museum contains a wonderful collection of portraits, landscapes, cityscapes and (flower) still life's from the period 1860 - 2000. All paintings are made by eight painters from three generations of the family Slager from 's-Hertogenbosch. The extensive collection includes works from different style periods and is presented in constantly changing theme-based exhibitions.

In the 'Groot Tuighuis' you can explore the 'ArcheoHotspot' of Den Bosch. Archaeologists do research while visitors can look, ask questions and have finds identified. You can also visit the exhibition with archeologic findings from Den Bosch. The Groot Tuighuis is making archaeology available to everyone in an exciting and interesting manner.
