Huis Van Ravesteyn: an architect’s house no longer open as a museum

Since the end of December 2025, Huis Van Ravesteyn in Utrecht has no longer been a public museum house. The building is being preserved, but regular museum visits are not available.

Plan your visit ↗

An architect’s house

The house is associated with railway architect Sybold van Ravesteyn. Undulating lines and pastel shades are among the features mentioned in descriptions of the house. That architecture remains a subject of interest, even now that its visitor function has changed.

A different use

The property remains in the collection of Hendrick de Keyser and is being given a residential or rental function. That is something different from an open museum. Old texts offering a museum visit no longer match the current situation.

Do not ring the bell for a tour

Do not treat old museum addresses or booking pages as an invitation to look inside. Any future openings would require a new, explicit announcement. If you are interested in the building, respect its current use and its surroundings.

Before you go

No museum opening since 22 December 2025; there are no regular visiting hours.
