Fabulous place- worth the day trip. The Van Gogh collection alone is worth a trip. But there is so much more

First you love art, paintings,Van Gogh and sculptures. You come to Otterlo,not many places to stay... Make sure you book the entrance to the museum online AND the entrance to the national park Hoge Veluwe, otherwise you queue. Getting to the museum is either on foot,a 3 kms through pine forest,bike,or bus,or private car with tickets The original artwork from seriously stunning painters has been collected by Helene Kroller Muller: plenty of fabulous Van Gogh,Pissaro, Seurat, Picasso and amazing sculptures in a 15 hectares park. The lighting, room arrangements and controlled visitors makes this visit unique. There's a cool coffee shop indoors and an outdoor restaurant. Wear comfortable shoes and just savour those master pieces in a quiet,low key environment. Art lovers come from all over the world... enjoy!…

We visited in mid July. Biking in from a nearby camping place. I'd say I have a 2 part review: Content: The paintings are fantastic! loads of Van Gogh paintings. A few other well know artists as well. There was an outdoor sculpture garden. We didn't spend a lood of time there because we were kids and they were sort of done, but you could easily enjoy the outdoor area a lot more too. Covid measures: I think they have organized the route inside very well to prevent crowding during this covid time. I didn't feel uncomfortable here and felt I had space to enjoy most of the paintings. (This is very different than the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam!!!) They have created a route through and it was manned fairly well to prevent crowding in individual rooms. To keep in mind: When we were there, there were 2 places for food. One inside which mostly snacks and coffee and the main eatery is outside and sort of a walk from the main building. Might want to keep this in mind when visiting if you were planning to use the facilities for eating and to plan your route inside accordingly.…

This is a jewel hidden away near Arnhem. Comprehensive record of early 20th century paintings and a delight for its collection of Van Gogh paintings and others in context.
