Explore the Dutch village where Vincent van Gogh lived for two transformative years and painted rural life with passion.

About

Vincentre - Van Gogh Village in Nuenen offers an immersive journey into the formative years of one of history's most celebrated artists. During his brief yet prolific residency between 1883 and 1885, Vincent van Gogh created a quarter of his entire body of work, including his first masterpiece, "The Potato Eaters." This living museum encompasses 24 preserved buildings and locations throughout the village and surrounding landscape, each with direct connections to Van Gogh's artistic development. Visitors can follow in the artist's footsteps, experiencing the same rural scenes that inspired his powerful depictions of weavers and peasant life. The Vincentre museum employs cutting-edge audio-visual techniques to transport guests back to 19th-century Brabant, offering intimate insights into Van Gogh as both person and evolving painter.
