Design Museum Den Bosch

Den Bosch


Opened in 2014 and rebranded in 2018, the museum's two large halls offer changing, interactive exhibitions focusing especially on ceramics and jewellery but also taking fascinating glances at the design concepts that underpin contemporary society.

If you also visit the connected Noordbrabants Museum, buying a combi-ticket saves €4.
