Dordrechts Museum

The Dordrechts Museum is an art museum that collects paintings from the 16th to the 21st century. The collections show different artistic techniques and styles that developed across six centuries.

The museum was founded in 1842 and was one of the early public art institutions in the Netherlands. Its founding reflected the city's commitment to making artworks accessible to the public.

The museum displays works by Dutch artists and regional talents that reflect the artistic heritage of the region across centuries. You can see how local creators developed their own paths and what role the city played in art history.

The building offers several areas to explore, including a cafe and a museum shop with souvenirs. Guided tours are available in different languages and help you understand the works better.

The museum currently focuses on French Romanticism and displays works by artists like Gericault, Ingres, and Delacroix. These focus exhibitions change regularly and show how the museum explores art history through different perspectives.
