Mauritshuis

The renewed Mauritshuis sees a doubling of the surface due to underground expansion that extends up to the building in front of the museum. In this way we wanted to preserve intact the character and appearance of the original museum. In the new section, called Royal Dutch Shell Wing, are the exhibition space, a bar and a museum shop, as well as the teaching laboratory, library and lounge events.Read More »The Royal picture gallery Mauritshuis reopens in the Hague
