Don’t miss The Van Gogh collection and the sculpture garden. Seeing only the museum means missing half of what makes Kröller-Müller special.

About the venue

About

The Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo is one of the Netherlands' most distinctive art destinations, combining a major collection of modern art with one of Europe's most important sculpture gardens inside De Hoge Veluwe National Park. The museum is particularly renowned for its extensive collection of Vincent van Gogh, one of the largest in the world, alongside works by artists including Picasso, Seurat and Mondrian. Outside the museum, the sculpture garden presents major modern and contemporary sculptures within forests, gardens and open landscape. This combination of Van Gogh, modern art, sculpture and nature makes Kröller-Müller much more than a conventional museum visit: it is a destination-worthy art escape. For art travellers, it is particularly rewarding as a day trip from Amsterdam and pairs exceptionally well with the Van Gogh Museum and Stedelijk Museum.

Worth the trip

Because Kröller-Müller offers a rare combination: Van Gogh + modern art + sculpture + nature.

A very few museums combine a world-class modern-art collection, an extraordinary Van Gogh holding and a vast sculpture garden in such a beautiful natural setting.
