Guided tour
Why not book a guided tour of the Mesdag Collection for your group? You will learn all about the unique pieces in the collection, but also about the passion with which Hendrik Willem Mesdag, aided by his wife Sientje, devoted himself to the arts, as a collector, patron, director and organiser of exhibitions.

Group size, duration and cost
A maximum of ten people can be accommodated per guided tour. It is possible to organise more than one guided tour at the same time.
A guided tour lasts 1 hour and costs 60 euro per group (not including admittance to museum).
