What to expect
Step into the history of human progress with your entrance ticket to The Louwman Museum in The Hague. This museum houses a unique collection of more than 250 highlights of automotive history. Taking you for a spin, so to speak, through more than 130 years of human progress, innovation, and design.
In addition to showing how automotive transport has evolved over the years, admire a one-of-a-kind collection of rare automobiles and memorabilia that also allows visitors to discover the advances in technology, design trends, growing wealth and changing social trends which emerged during this time. Explore everything from the first-ever electric vehicle (built more than a century ago!) to some of the twentieth century’s most stunning automotive designs.
The Louwman Museum offers numerous attractions to guests to complement its vast collection of automobiles. These ancillary collections of vehicle-themed art, miniature models, posters, trophies, and even airplanes are all well worth a look.
You will find the full collection housed in the Michael Graves-designed main museum building, which is located in a lush section of The Hague renowned for its grand estates. Covering an area of 16,000 square meters divided across three floors, the Louwman Museum is nothing if not versatile and can be used for an infinite variety of purposes. The garden landscape (designed by noted landscape architect Lodewijk Baljon) is beautifully integrated with the Haagse Bos, a protected wooded area within the city.
