Marius van Dokkum Museum: moving to Kloosterplein

Marius van Dokkum Museum in Harderwijk is closed in September 2026 due to relocation. Reopening is announced for 6 October, with an entrance on Kloosterplein.

Plan your visit ↗

Humour in recognisable situations

The paintings are described as humorous and mildly critical of society. Pay attention to posture, glances and small actions: that is where the tension of a scene can arise.

Familiar titles, new selection

Meegaan met je tijd, Turbo and Dansje in de kerk are mentioned as examples. Ask about the new presentation if you are coming specially for one work; not every title in the collection is a guarantee it will be on show.

The studio as part of the visit

The museum mentions a studio where the artist regularly works. His presence is not a given; check the programme if that matters for your visit.

Before you go

Use the new address Academiestraat 14, entrance on Kloosterplein. Check the October booking, and allow for separate conditions for groups, which are stated as applying from November.
