Bonnefanten museum

Very big museum, don’t have enough time to finish all parts. My suggestion for visitors: leave enough time to explore the exhibition and also for the interaction parts (paper-made hat etc..). The museum shop is very nice! Bring some souvenirs to decorate your home!

Absolutely worth the visit if you’re in Maastricht! Spent over two hours in here and it was a great blend of old and modern art. Also super interactive and engaging!

One of the modern museum of Maastricht.they focus on Modern and contemporary art. They have few permanent collection and collections and exhibitions that changes with periodically. They also host lectures and live cultural performances

Beautiful museum with an expansive collection and really lovely staff. The Isaac Julien retrospective is an absolute must-see: be ready to spend way more time than you expect in here – either plan multiple visits, or just let this eye-opening exhibition fill up your agenda for the day. The diverse selection of English books in the museum shop was also a very pleasant surprise. (Free entry with museumkaart! 😊)

Really nice mix of the Dutch Masters paintings, along with the 2 other exhibitions which were focused on modern art. Unusual but really appreciated the curation. Staff all very friendly and well worth the visit. Some of the art could do with a bit more explaining but perhaps that is the way with modern art. Appreciated the student discount also (allows international students!)

Great museum with a plethora of art showcased, a gift shop, and a nice restaurant. It is worth noticing that its focus is on contemporary art. I truly enjoyed the few hours I spent there, as well as their food. We visited in the afternoon of a weekday during summer vacation and it wasn't cramped at all.

A wonderful few hours spent here. Many varied exhibitions,well laid out in Dutch and English.

Great museum, lovely mix of old masters and modern, changing exhibitions. Very interactive and suitable for families as well, as there's lots to do yourself. Very nice museum shop too.

Fantastic museum,interesting,next opening Sir Isaac Julien great exhibition Friday 8.3
Free entrance 20-23

A museum in Maastricht that needs to be allocated at least 2-3 hours. As well as classical permanent works, installations that touch on contemporary international issues are also interesting. At the entrance of the museum, there is a shop where you can buy original works. In addition, the restaurant on the ground floor is ideal for resting and eating something before or after your visit. You can go to the top floor by elevator and go down. If you find volunteers on the 2nd floor who are more than happy to provide information about the exhibits in the museum, do not neglect to listen.

Access
The museum is a bit outside the old center and on the other side of the river. It is possible to turn this situation into an opportunity for a nice walk. You can reach the museum by walking 20-25 minutes from the City Center. On your way, cross the Sint Servaasbrug bridge, one of Maastricht's beautiful bridges, and walk parallel to the river on Rechtstraat street. This street is an alternative to the old center, with cute shops and art galleries, and a very convenient street to walk before visiting a museum. You can buy original works at affordable prices from the shop called Maaslands Antiqariaat Lijtenmakerij, which is actually a frame shop on the street.
When you reach the toy store named Kadowinkel in Twinkel, you can turn towards the river and walk the rest of the way to the museum parallel to the Meuse river. On the way back, you can walk back parallel to the river and reach the city center from the Hoge Brug bridge.

Nice lay-out of the museum. The 1th floor permanent exhibition doesn't do it for me. 2nd & 3rd floor more contemporary arts with a few highs and lows.
Cafe serves great food and thumbs up for their friendly staff!

I visited the Bonnefanten museum on the Maastricht Museum Nacht event.
The museum is amazing, and the art displayed is varied.
I advise you to visit this museum when visiting Maastricht.

Such an experience. Fabulous building. Interesting exhibits, displayed very well. Lovely stylish cafe as well.

Really interesting and nice arts exhibition.

Nice Japanese museum. The old man at the ticket counter was very friendly and helpful.The museum has lovely olden paintings and olden days hitech machines on display.

Great place to host a party. Not sure about the museum itself since all I did was attend a party here, but it was a good time. The bar staff were good and friendly and the security staff were also very amusing with a fair bit of banter as well. Everything was sorted nicely and the DJ provided some appropriate bouncing tunes for everyone to bop along to. A good time had by all.

very big museum with extremely well curated and diverse exhibitions including interactive crafting stations for children

The museum was definitely interesting. I was more drawn to the more modern things but that’s just a personal preference.

It was worth going a little out of the way to see. The staff at the ticket counter were AMAZING. They were very accommodating to English speakers. Everything with the layout was explained etc.

Great contemporary art gallery/museum. Lockers are free of charge, rooms all have air conditioning. Nice cafe.

A lovingly well lit place .You just need enough time to walk around there’s a lot of beautiful things.
