Rijksmuseum
The Dutch national museum, Rembrandt's Night Watch and the Golden Age
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
Cuypers' 1885 cathedral of Dutch art, reopened in 2013 after a decade-long restoration, holds Rembrandt's Night Watch, Vermeers and 8,000 objects across 800 years. The reinstalled galleries and the garden pavilions make it one of Europe's essential museums. An institution that rewards a slow, repeat visit.
