"The museum presents the works of eight artists from three generations of the Slager family. It was really interesting getting to know this talented dutch family through their art. The museum is in the Slager family house, so also, you can immerse yourself in the atmosphere of this family's interiors and look at the original objects and furniture of the family. If you want to take a break they will treat coffee and dutch spice cake for free. (you may leave some tip of course)
Plus they make temporary exhibitions there! It was an amazing experience. Thank you โค๏ธ"

"A tiny museum with excellent paintings and atmosphere.
The volunteers are friendly and helpful.
The museum shows you 3 generations of painters. All love realistic work so you will see portrets, nature, landscapes and flowers.
In the museum there is also place for temporary art of others or other topics.
Entrance: 8 euro, including coffee or tea in a cosy room.
Duration: about one hour, can easily combine with the kathedral next door!!!
If you visit Den Bosch /'s-Hertogenbosch this small museum together with the cathedral is a must!
(And don't forget Noord Brabant museum to see van Gogh)"
