Huysmuseum: visiting the collection via Sint Paulushofje

The Huysmuseum can no longer be visited as a separate museum on the Van Bergenplein. Its story and collection on the history of psychiatry are now housed at Museum Sint Paulushofje in Etten-Leur.

Plan your visit ↗

A changed museum location

The former name may still appear in listings, but the old visiting address and the old hours no longer apply. If you are coming specifically for this subject, ask at Sint Paulushofje which part of the collection is on display at that time.

Looking at history with care

The subject touches on care and on how people with mental health problems are portrayed. Read the explanations of historical objects in the context of their time. Do not regard past views or treatments as current medical information or as a description of everyone who receives care.

Planning your visit now

For access, use the schedule of Museum Sint Paulushofje and Van Gogh Etten-Leur. It has fixed afternoons and certain Sundays, plus changes on public holidays. A ticket for the current location does not automatically mean that the entire former Huysmuseum collection is on view.

Before you go

Go to Markt 59 and confirm the display you want to see. The former address on the Van Bergenplein is no longer a separate museum address.
