Philips Museum

“The museum building is a strange mix of futuristic style and old red brick. Opened in 1936, this unusually designed building is one of the best museums of modern and contemporary art in Europe. There are over 2700 pieces of art – ranging from paintings to sculptures and created famous artists like Picasso, Mondrain, and Kandinsky. The Van Abbe is very easy to get to. We had a wander around the entire building but didn’t go in due to time constraints. It’s just south of the train station about a 10-minute walk through shops/bars and located beside the Dommel Rover in the Stratumseind District. ”

“To help you plan your trip to Eindhoven, here are a bunch of the top attractions, sights, eats, and drinks. We had a great time wandering around the city and definitely need a second full day to take in everything on this list.”

“Eindhoven has a spaceship – or more specifically a “flying saucer” that you should definitely see. Let’s be serious – this is just a very cool building. The futuristically designed building was completed in 1966 by Philips – and you’ll learn more about the company as we go. These days, it’s a conference centre that gets used quite frequently. It was also the location of a former science museum. In any case, the building has come to represent the technology and innovation happening in the city – so go and check it out. It’s just a quick walk from the Strijp-S Area ”

“nice bars and restaurants in the center of the city. Come to rest here after a day of shopping and sight-seeing”

“Prachtige kerk. Ontworpen door Pierre Cuypers (architect van oa Amsterdam CS en het Rijksmuseum)”
