Oldest municipal Museum of Holland

The Centraal Museum Utrecht opened in 1838. It is the earliest municipal museum of Holland. It has been largely established in a former medieval monastery and possesses a varied collection. The museum was renovated in 1999 by architects Peter Versseput, Stéphane Beel and Lieven Achtergael. The Centraal Museum Utrecht comprises a series of pavilions around a courtyard.
