Rijksmuseum Twenthe is the only museum in the northern and eastern provinces of the Netherlands that has such a rich collection that it can show the complete story of western art, from the late Middle Ages until the present day. Moreover, it conceives and schedules exhibitions and events from the whole range of the Collectie Nederland (Netherlands Collection). Thus it fis both pillar and hub in the museum infrastructure in the Netherlands.

Rijksmuseum Twenthe juxtaposes the present day with the past in thirty-six rooms. These are the playful cabinets of the imagination. This is a museum in which you can lose yourself, where you come to see one exhibition and find yourself being surprised by another. The museum has no permanent exhibition, but changes and renews itself constantly. Just like society itself, and art naturally.
