The Mauritshuis is one of The Hague’s cultural treasures, home to world-famous works from the Dutch Golden Age. Situated right in the city centre, next to the Binnenhof, this elegant 17th-century building houses masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Frans Hals, and Rubens.
Its most iconic painting is Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring — often called the “Mona Lisa of the North.” Visitors can also discover Rembrandt’s The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp, Fabritius’ The Goldfinch, and many other highlights.
The museum is renowned for its intimate atmosphere, where visitors can experience world-famous artworks up close. Throughout the year, the Mauritshuis also hosts special exhibitions, guided tours, and family-friendly activities. The building itself is a work of art, with elegant rooms and views over the Hofvijver.
