Museum Kranenburgh in Bergen
For a cultural day out, Bergen is the place to be. The beautiful village is close to Schoorl and you will find several galleries and museums. As far as we are concerned, museum Kranenburgh is the highlight of the Bergen museums.
Located just outside the heart of the village, the museum consists of a stately old mansion with a modern wing built against it. Behind the museum is the 'sculpture forest' with several permanent and changing art objects.
Several changing exhibitions are organised every year, in addition to displays of its own collection. The museum focuses partly on the "Bergen Schoorl": a group of artists who came to Bergen at the beginning of the last century because of the inspiring surroundings and the beautiful light the sea shines over the village.
