What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors appreciate the Haus der Niederlande for its free, rotating art exhibitions housed within a beautiful, historic building. The Krameramtshaus itself is a significant draw, offering a glimpse into Münster's past. While the lack of on-site restrooms is a minor inconvenience, the cultural value and accessibility make it a recommended stop.
"There are regularly changing art exhibitions in this building. It is a historical building (Krameramtshaus) with a large hall in which the exhibitions take place.
Entry is free. There is no toilet here, but there is one in the city library next door. However, you need a library card or a bit of luck that someone opens a toiletry item with their ID."
Monika Hofner
"Here is the House of the Netherlands, also the seat of the Münster merchants' association since 1838. This impressive building is also one of the oldest in Münster. Exhibitions are sometimes held here. When the Dutch King William Alexander comes to Münster, he always visits this house."
Klaus Benker
"One of my favorite buildings in Münster...changing exhibitions and lots of new things to discover."
