The façade as three-dimensional design
First walk round the complex and notice the brick bond, windows, towers and sculptural lines. Ask how aesthetics and housing function are combined in the same design.
Homes for working-class families
Museum rooms place the architecture in the context of public housing and the commissioning role of Eigen Haard. Compare a floor plan with a furnished or described home to understand scale and everyday use.
Het Schip is not De Dageraad
The satellite venue in Zuid has its own hours and a different address. A combined story about the same architectural movement does not mean that one ticket or schedule automatically applies to both.
Before you go
Museum Het Schip is open Tuesday–Sunday 11:00–17:00. Check for current changes. The satellite venue De Dageraad has its own address and schedule.
