Museum Beelden aan Zee

Discover Museum Beelden aan Zee, Den Haag's premier destination for modern and contemporary sculpture, which has just unveiled a spectacular transformation. Following extensive renovations and "greening" efforts, officially reopened by Queen Máxima on June 26, 2026, the museum welcomed visitors back on June 27, 2026, with enhanced facilities and a refreshed aesthetic. Explore a renewed entrance area, a brand-new museum café perfect for a coffee break, and a new museum shop to find unique souvenirs.

The museum's sculpture terraces have been reimagined as "Het SculptuurDuin," integrating art seamlessly with indigenous dune vegetation for a unique outdoor exhibition experience. Inside, delve into diverse exhibitions, including the compelling "Rui Chafes X Alberto Giacometti: Gris, Vide, Cris III" which opened with the museum's relaunch. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, with extended summer hours (July 6 - August 31, 2026) including Mondays from 13:00 to 17:00.
