SieboldHuis, Japanese cultural museum in Leiden, Netherlands

The SieboldHuis exhibits a collection of 25,000 Japanese objects, including art pieces, maps, utensils, and natural specimens gathered in the 1820s.

German physician Philipp Franz von Siebold collected artifacts during his stay at the Dutch trading post Dejima from 1823 to 1829.

The museum displays permanent and temporary exhibitions that demonstrate the connections between Japanese and Dutch societies through various artistic mediums.

Located in central Leiden, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with adult admission set at 10 euros.

The building maintains scientific specimens and botanical collections that introduced Japanese flora and fauna to European researchers in the 19th century.
