Discover Geuzenkwartier: Art, Museums and City Life

Geuzenkwartier is ideal for a trip that combines art, urban discoveries and special places to visit. In the immediate surroundings, the Statenkwartier district is characterised by broad pavements and distinctive turrets. The nearly one-kilometre-long Frederik Hendriklaan, with more than 100 shops, also offers a convenient destination for anyone who enjoys strolling through a varied urban neighbourhood during their stay.

Art and Photography in Statenkwartier

The Kunstmuseum Den Haag is located in Statenkwartier and houses more than 160,000 works of art. Its most notable feature is the world’s largest Mondrian collection. This makes it possible to complement a stay in Geuzenkwartier with a museum visit focused either on a single artist or on the breadth of the collection.

The Fotomuseum Den Haag is also located in Statenkwartier. The museum aims to give people space for quiet reflection, where they can discover layers, meanings and the context of photography and reflect on the art of seeing themselves, their surroundings and the world. Every year, it presents at least four contemporary and insightful exhibitions. This provides your travel planning with a cultural option focused more strongly on contemplation and photographic themes.

KM21 is also located in Statenkwartier. It presents contemporary visual art in the form of installations, video installations, paintings, sculptures, multimedia, performances, films, photography, drawings, digital art and design. In addition to exhibitions, KM21 also hosts lectures, discussions, performances, film screenings and book presentations. Anyone wishing to explore different forms of contemporary art can include this venue as a dedicated item on their itinerary.

Museon-Omniversum and a Unique Film Dome

Museon-Omniversum is located in Statenkwartier. It has the largest film dome in the Benelux countries. For families, this can be a varied addition to the art museums, especially if you want to accommodate different interests when planning your day. A useful landmark is the Kunstmuseum tram stop: from there, it is a two-minute walk to the main entrance of Museon-Omniversum.

The Right Holiday Apartment as a Base

When looking for a holiday apartment in Geuzenkwartier, you can consider what mix you want to define your trip. The kind of day you have in mind can therefore be a decisive factor when choosing your holiday apartment. Consider whether you want to place greater emphasis on cultural discoveries, a family-oriented activity or a shopping trip. Anyone wishing to plan an additional family-oriented outing can include Museon-Omniversum. For a more urban experience, the shopping options around De Fred and Frederik Hendriklaan take centre stage.
