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.
Set in a beautiful building, this tribute to the famous artist is a real treat. Come and learn a lot and see a lot of gorgeous art. Very exciting and stimulating.

Zelf varen in een bootje in en rondom de stad 's-Hertogenbosch. We hebben sloepen voor maximaal 7 personen en ook elektrische eenden waar je met 2 personen in kan. Ook hebben we grote open rondvaartboten voor grote groepen. Deze boten worden gevaren door een schipper van De Vlotte Vloot. Beide boten zijn geheel en gedeeltelijk te overkappen, zodat er altijd gevaren kan worden, ook als het regent. De ideale oplossing voor vrijgezellenfeesten, familiedagen en personeelsuitjes.

We called into the VVV as we hadn't ever spent time in Den Bosch. The English speaking staff (thank you) were very welcoming and helpful. We came away with maps and brochures and information about local tours. We also bought a fantastic walking tour brochure we did ourselves -perfect as we could go at our own pace (i.e. kid pace)

The city of Den Bosch or in full ‘s Hertogenbosch (The Duke’s Forest ... Bois-le-Duc or Bolduc) is one of the oldest in the Netherlands. It got city rights as early as 1184. In fact Neanderthalers already lived there 30000 years ago! The market is very central and very worthwhile to visit for shopping, sightseeing or relaxing at one of the many bars and and restaurants. Also there is a statue of Jeroen Bosch the famous painter, as well as his native house built in 1462, Sint Thoenis, now called “de kleine winst” (literally “the small profit”) which was a souvenir shop until recently and is now subject to archeological study.
