Koornmarktspoort: a former museum venue in Kampen

The Koornmarktspoort in Kampen is not currently open as a museum. The gate was previously used for temporary exhibitions, but that function has ended.

A building and its former use

Older museum listings describe exhibitions in the town gate. That explains why the name still appears in guides. However, an old exhibition or a surviving weekly schedule does not mean there is still a museum programme inside.

Looking from outside is something else

The gate can be part of a walk through Kampen. Viewing a building from outside does not give access to its interior. Keep that distinction in mind when you plan a route past places that once served as museums.

Look further for exhibitions

If you want to go to Kampen for an exhibition, you can consult the current programme of the Stedelijk Museum. Check the specific address as you do so. A reference to the same museum organisation does not make the Koornmarktspoort an open exhibition venue again.

Before you go

According to the current description, no museum visit is possible in the Koornmarktspoort.
