    It's a unique experience to visit this place. Was not aware of such rich and fine collection of art, history and culture. The museum has assistive gadget guide to follow items and information. A wonderful courtyard with a cafe and a souvenir shop to spend a nice afternoon, surrounded by open corridors. Also includes exhibits of modern art and stylistic dutch overtones of de stijl and art deco movements. What a visual treat !!

    It's a very nice place to go even if you are remotely interested in art. It has two sections, one for 17 and 18th century artist and one with more recent art. I was lucky to visit on a day when they had free entrance, so if you are Enschede longer, you can plan your visit accordingly and save some cash!

    Wonderful museum! Several cool exhibitions (and absolutely different in terms of info/energy/visual content). Beautiful cafe (with a very good coffee and a very appealing cakes). Just one little thing that I didn’t like (but museum can’t do anything about it, of course) - quite an expensive parking fee nearby.

    Small, cute, regional museum. We liked many of the paintings and the space is curated fairly well. The audio tour had English as an option which was good

    A great museum with an interesting concept that puts the museum's artefacts in dialogue. It also reinvents itself frequently. I was there last July and now in January and nearly half of the exhibition space was with new exhibits. Sure I want to come again in half a year. Compared to museums in Germany the entrance fee is steeper. The audio guides sometimes don't work with good precision. Sometimes they don't respond, at other times they explain the wrong exhibit. But when they work, the information is good and comprehensive.

    A small gallery, but putting on impressive exhibitions (I went for the Artemisia Gentileschi exhibition, Vrouw & Macht, and wasn't disappointed)... well organised and presented. And they also have related activities: a music evening for Baroque music from female composers, and for younger children.

    A nice sized museum, quite small but not too small. And a nice blend of more 'traditional' art and newer types. It also has a cafe, but there's a few interesting looking place near by too. 4 stars because it's good but not absolutely amazing.

    I was greeted by the friendliest staff ever. I told them I speak a bit of Dutch and I’m trying to practice speaking Dutch so the receptionist started telling me instructions in Dutch then repeated it in English for me. The place itself is amazing. A great mixture between renaissance/ golden age art with modern/abstract art. Some art display from exhibition Na De Jacht lowkey gave me a heart attack by how they look but in general, very impressive way to express art. Nice location, not too far from the central station and very quiet (it won’t be as crowded as Rijkmuseum in Amsterdam but always keep in mind they have way smaller collection of art here)

  • 2/5 Barend de J. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice for children and young people. Trees for shade. Snack bar, but with limited menu. WC's available. You should not go there before you rest. No enforcement on music nuisance. Each group of young people has one or more boxes and they are often too loud the times we were there (to hear the other side of the park). Very disturbing. (Original) Leuk voor kinderen en jongeren. Bomen voor schaduw. Snackbar, maar met beperkt menu. WC's aanwezig. Voor je rust moet je er niet heen gaan. Geen handhaving op muziekoverlast. Elk groepje jongeren heeft een of meer boxen en die staan de keren dat wij er waren regelmatig veel te hard (andere kant park te horen). Erg storend.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful lake with many options for young and old. You have to buy your parking ticket at the same time, otherwise you will be waiting in line for a very lame time. Nice place to spend a day. (Original) Prachtige plas met veel mogelijkheden voor jong en oud. Je moet wel betijds je parkeerticket kopen anders sta je heel lamg te wachten in de rij.

  • 3/5 Chair B. 9 months ago on Google
    Collection is so so. Kind of weird. Garden is pretty. One of the front lady is SOOOOO RUDE (she shut me up so unpleasantly when my friends were asking her about entrance fee and I inquired another lady about museum pass! I don’t get. We need to decide which one is better and I’m not interfering her answering my friends’ question) and another is pretty friendly. Another lady also points us to an English map. None of them tell us about the free audio guide though. Pretty disappointing here.

  • 5/5 Ian T. 10 months ago on Google
    Very nice museum with lots of modern and old art to view.

  • 3/5 Rudi B. 4 years ago on Google
    This small museum was unfortunately undergoing some renovation when we visited. The closed-off areas turned the visit - which would not take too much time anyway - into a short, one hour stroll. They only charged 5 euro entrance fee, because only half the exhibits were available to view. If you happen to be in Enschede for any reason, it's probably worth a visit.

  • 3/5 Debbie B. 4 years ago on Google
    We decided to visit the Rijksmuseum while in Enschede. It was informative, but only one small section of the museum was ope due to a new art installation. We were looking forward to learning more about the early Dutch works of the 16 and 17th century artists. Staff were pleasant.

  • 2/5 Cláudia P. 1 year ago on Google
    Rijksmuseum Twenthe is in good location and has lots of paintings. I found it very expensive for what it has. (Better if you go there with the museumkaart.) Almost nothing in my view, not much information about the works. What I enjoyed the most is the art that makes wind.

  • 5/5 Sergio A. 2 years ago on Google
    I got surprised on the quality and diversity of pieces of art that are in the museum, good recommendation.

  • 5/5 Djordy W. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I have been coming to the Lageveld since I was little. Often with the scouting we were always within walking distance. Nowadays I come there when warm with friends. The low field has enough toilets, parking spaces and you can get food. In summer you can swim here and in winter you can skate on natural ice when it is cold enough. It is also fairly close to the station making it easy to cycle. (Original) Ik kom al sinds ik klein ben bij het Lageveld. Vaak met de scouting we waren toen op loopafstand altijd van af. Tegenwoordig kom ik er als warm is met vrienden. Het lageveld heeft genoeg toiletten, parkeerplaatsen en je kan eten halen. In de zomer kan je hier lekker zwemmen en in de winter kan je heerlijk schaatsen op natuurijs als het koud genoeg is. Het ligt ook redelijk dicht bij het station het is makkelijk om te fietsen.

  • 4/5 He S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) You can walk for free or by bike. Unfortunately more and more buildings and asphalt. While there are fit centers and industry sheds within walking distance. Oldemeyer still has a Central Park content. Hopefully the remaining part, including green devices, will remain freely accessible. (Original) Je kan gratis lopen of met de fiets. Helaas steeds meer gebouwen en asfalt. Terwijl er fit centra en industrie loodsen op loopafstand zijn. Oldemeyer heeft nog wel Central park gehalte. Hopelijk blijft resterend deel inclusief groene toestellen vrij toegankelijk.

  • 4/5 Alona S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) So we liked how everything was laid out. Well thought out, there are many opportunities for children to play. You only have to pay for parking. What we didn't like was that there were so many people and because it was very hot the water was very dirty, my youngest (2 years old) got a really hesitant rash. (Original) Also uns hat es gefallen wie alles angelegt war. Schon super überlegt, gibts viele Möglichkeiten für kinder zum spielen. Muss man nur fürs Parken bezahlen. Was uns nicht gefallen hat war das so viele Leute da waren und weil es sehr heiß war ist das Wasser sehr dreckig gewesen, mein jüngster (2 Jahre alt) hat ein echt heslichen Hautausschlag bekommen.

    (Translated by Google) Clean terrain, little to no waste. If there is waste, it is neatly cleaned up. Big enough, even for larger groups (Original) Net terrein, weinig tot geen afval. Ligt er afval wordt het netjes opgeruimd. Groot genoeg, ook voor grotere groepen

  • 5/5 Sonja B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Beautiful place for swimming and sunbathing. We were unlucky that there were a lot of needle flies, probably not enough wind or something, so we could not lie comfortably. Parking costs 5 euros. (Original) Prachtige plek om te zwemmen en zonnen. Wij hadden de pech dat er veel prikvliegen waren, waarschijnlijk te weinig wind ofzo, daardoor konden we niet lekker liggen. Parkeren kost 5 euro.
