Teylers Museum

Teylers Museum is the Netherlands’ first and oldest museum, open to the public since 1784. Unique to this museum is the historical presentation of its collections, largely unchanged since the late 18th and 19th centuries. As a whole, the building and the collections are a monument to two centuries of cultural history.
A visit to Teylers Museum is a like voyage through time, a voyage of discovery in the world of art and science. A stroll through the museum takes you from fossils and minerals to prints and drawings and paintings, from scientific instruments to coins and medals. Its interior alone, with the jewel in its crown the period Ovale Zaal (Oval Room), makes this a supreme tourist attraction.

The museum is named after one of the most famous painters of the Golden Age: Frans Hals. It is housed in a picturesque building which served as an old men’s home in 1609. The museum exhibits 16th and 17th century paintings, including the famous group portraits of the civic guards by Frans Hals. But also other Dutch painters: van Ruysdael & Jan Steen.
