About this museum

Beeld En Geluid Den Haag, located on the Zeestraat in The Hague, is a dynamic museum dedicated to the history and impact of media and sound in the Netherlands.

The museum's collection includes thousands of audiovisual recordings, allowing guests to relive historic broadcasts and discover how media has shaped Dutch society.

Plan at least two hours to fully engage with the exhibits, and check the museum's website for temporary shows and events.

Situated in the vibrant Museumkwartier district, Beeld En Geluid Den Haag is surrounded by cultural landmarks like the Kunstmuseum Den Haag and the Fotomuseum Den Haag. After your visit, stroll along the nearby Lange Voorhout or enjoy a coffee at one of the chic cafes on the Zeestraat. The area is easily accessible by tram or bike, and there is paid street parking available. For a full day of culture, combine your trip with a visit to the Panorama Mesdag or the Mauritshuis.
