Cuypershuis, Architecture museum in Roermond, Netherlands.
Cuypershuis is an architecture museum in Roermond that occupies the former residence and studio of Dutch architect Pierre Cuypers. The building displays rooms with furnishings, tools, and models that document his working life and design approach.
Pierre Cuypers was born in Roermond in 1827 and became a leading architect of the 19th century. After his successful work on major projects elsewhere, attention eventually returned to this house where his career began.
The house reveals how Cuypers designed his own spaces with thoughtful details and quality craftsmanship. This personal environment reflects the design approach he applied to his public buildings.
The location is walkable from the city center of Roermond with clear signage. The interior spans multiple floors, so visitors with mobility concerns should ask about arrangements ahead of time.
The workshop still displays original tools and sketches that Cuypers used to plan his famous projects. Visitors can see the actual space where major designs took shape.
