Did you know that the correct pronunciation of Van Gogh is with two hard Dutch Gs, and not “Van Go” as many people say it?

A visit to the Van Gogh museum is a must for any lover of art. It holds nearly 200 paintings by Van Gogh in addition to letters and drawings. The new lower floor space is often host to interesting exhibits looking more deeply into Van Gogh’s contemporaries or back story.

Upon visiting the Van Gogh Museum you might notice that the museum is made up of two different structures. The main building where the group entrance sits was designed by Gerrit Rietveld and is angular in style, while the rounded secondary structure was built 26 years later by architect Kisho Kurokawa. There is now a new glass entrance to better tie the museum’s buildings together and fit in with other structures on the Museumplein. This airy, bright space holds the world’s largest collection of artworks by Vincent Van Gogh.
