Finally made it to visit the Rietveld Schröder House in Utrecht, according to UNESCO “an important and unique icon of western architectural history” and “a masterpiece of human creative activity”.
Arriving at the house (built in 1924), I was surprised by the location and the size of the …

The Centraal museum, Utrecht, is one of the more unusual museums I've been to recently. It spans an unusually wide timespan, for a start. From the Roman Jerkin and ancient cargo ship in the basement to cutting edge video installations; there are very few places where you turn your back on a bog oa…

The tour of the Dom Tower costs 7.50€, 6.50€ for students, and is not covered by the museumkaart. You have to take the tour to go up the tower, and when you see how narrow the stairs are, that makes perfect sense.
The Dom tower is very old, and very beautiful. It was built in the fourteenth…

In April of this year (2008) the drugstore had this special offer of weekend traintickets, for 10 euro, no matter what the destination was. So I bought some of them, with the intention to have a nice day with the family. But hubby always has some excuse, (whether it is a real excuse or one he came u…

A different way to visit Utrecht, if we have foreign visitors we like to show them our city like this.
A little outside the city centre, you find a boat and canoo rental service, located at the old, slow river "de Kromme Rijn" wich runs through the city centre. You'll be able to paddle through the…

Once a year a day is held where people from all over the country can sing together hymns and psalms in (obviously) a church, usually a gem amongst churches.
This year my daughter who is in a choir did participate in this event, so I decided to join her.
The church for this year was the Nicolaike…

The aboriginal art museum is a small, private museum in Utrecht dedicated to showcasing contemporary aboriginal art. It is covered by the museumkaart scheme; I think it is worth it on a museumkaart but would be a bit too expensive for its size if you had to pay for entry, unless you were there when…

The Catharijneconvent (Catherine Convent) museum in Utrecht is dedicated to Christian Religious Art, and as it was free museum day and I'd slept in too long to go anywhere further away, I went to have a look. It turned out to be 1.50 Euros rather than free, but I can live with that.

This museum specialises in mechanical music, from chiming clocks through the ancestors of record players and automatic violin machines to enormous café dance hall organs. It is housed in a converted church in Utrecht.
There is good information signs for the exhibits, most of which is also in En…
