Musis Sacrum

Musis Sacrum is a concert hall in Arnhem featuring a large main auditorium with glass walls that face the surrounding park. The design allows performances to be experienced with views of the natural landscape beyond the building.

The venue was founded in 1847 and has shaped the musical life of the city ever since. A major redesign in 2018 modernized the building with new spaces created by prominent Dutch architects.

The hall regularly hosts the Gelders Philharmonic Orchestra and presents classical concerts, theatrical works, and performances that combine music with literature. Visitors experience a space where artistic traditions shape how people in the region engage with live performance.

Plan your visit by checking the website for current events and visitor guidance before going. The building is easily accessible and the connection to the park makes it simple to explore the surroundings.

The building features a retractable glass wall that allows indoor performances to become outdoor experiences. This feature creates a direct link between the stage and the green landscape surrounding it.
