Museum Prinsenhof Delft Reviews | Rating 4.4 out of 5 stars (8 reviews)

Museum Prinsenhof Delft is located in Delft, Netherlands on Sint Agathaplein 1. Museum Prinsenhof Delft is rated 4.4 out of 5 in the category art museum in Netherlands. Museum Prinsenhof Delft is een uniek stedelijk kunst- en cultuurhistorisch museum van nationale betekenis met een (inter)nationaal publieksbereik. Het museum richt zich op een onderscheidende programmering, samenwerking en partnership, cultureel ondernemerschap en beschouwt het gebouw als belangrijkste collectiestuk. Museum Prinsenhof Delft denkt en handelt vanuit de kernwaarden kwaliteit (spraakmakend en uniek), verbinden (open en gastvrij), authentiek (Delftse blik) en ondernemend (met lef). Concreet betekent dit dat het museum verbindingen aangaat met diverse partijen binnen èn buiten de stad zoals de TU Delft, ondernemers, het Nederlands Bureau voor Toerisme & Congressen en culturele partners. Delft zit op een gouden schat en het museum is de parel in de stad. Het motto 'Ontdek Nederland in Delft: typical Delft, typical Dutch'​ sluit hier naadloos op aan. De Delftse innovatieve blik is het uitgangspunt voor ontdekkingen van de museumbezoeker. Het museum vertelt een breed verhaal over Willem van Oranje, Delfts blauw en Delftse meesters, maar ook het verhaal van ‘hedendaagse Delftse meesters’ als MOJO en Theo Janssen. Het tentoonstellingsprogramma tot en met 2020 is ambitieus met 'DNA van Nederland'​, 'Art Nouveau'​, 'Willem is hier'​ en 'Pieter de Hooch'​. Museum Prinsenhof is zoveel meer dan alleen maar een museum waar spotjes op prachtige schilderijen en aardewerk schijnen. The sky is the limit! Van workshop, teambuildingsessie, discussieavond, lezing, concert, kopje koffie tot mijmeren in onze stadstuin en trouwen in onze kerk. Kom en beleef het! In Museum Prinsenhof Delft.

This museum is very rich in its collection though not that big. Still it took me 2,5 hours to see the exhibits and enjoy the atmosphere of William the Silent (Willem van Oranje) epoch. I think that it’s worth including it into your must see list when you are in Delft.

Small museum but really interesting exhibits on William of Orange and silverware (surprising to me as I’m usually not into the latter usually). All translated into English. I’m glad the ticket lady convinced me to get the audioguide for 2.50 bc it definitely enhances the experience. I was there overall about 1.5 hours so whilst I think 12.50 is still pretty steep for that short a time, I still learned a lot. Beautiful courtyard outside the museum as well with a great cafe.

Why aren't the Dutch speaking Spanish? Because this is the house where Dutch resistance started and the formation of the independent Dutch country began. This museum depicts beautiful paintings that tells the story of the 80 year long war against the Spanish for independence. The estate that houses the museum was owned by William of Orange. The one who promoted the rebellion against the Spanish. It has some beautiful hidden architectural features like chiseled artwork on bricks behind a firestove and bullet holes from an assassination attempt against him. It also shows paintings from an artist that specialised in daily social life of the Dutch and there is a wing about the famous blue Delftware. Great information with a free audiotour. Definitely worth the visit if you want to know more about the formation and struggles of the Netherlands to become their own free nation.
