Het Noordbrabants Museum
The provincial museum of art and history, with Bosch-era art, early works by Van Gogh, and the history of Brabant.
The museum is housed in an 18th-century governor's residence and presents the history and art of North Brabant from Roman times to the present. Highlights include the paintings and drawings Van Gogh made during his years in Nuenen, one of the few places in the Netherlands with original Van Gogh works on permanent display; paintings and sculpture from Bosch's era; and large special exhibitions. The 2016 exhibition marking the 500th anniversary of Bosch's death drew worldwide attention. The back garden has sculptures and is very quiet. Admission is about €20 (free with a museum card), and the museum is closed on Mondays. It shares an entrance square with the Design Museum, so the two can be visited together.
