The popular Museum Boijmans van Beuningen is unfortunately closed till 2028 due to major renovation. Instead, you can visit the new Museum Depot. The silver building really stands out in the park and every evening after sunset there is a light show. In the park ther's also the monument for Gerrit Johannes de Jongh (1845-1917).
