Verwey Museum Haarlem

“I really like the Haarlem history section of the Verway museum which is most of the upstairs. It does a really good job of explaining the origins of Haarlem and then the key events in the history of the city. What I particularly like is it doesn't shy away from explaining the darker periods in the city's history. All the explanations are in Dutch and English. And it's got the perfect amount of exhibits and information - it takes 45 mins to 1 hr if you look at everything. The rest of the museum is locally relevant exhibits. They're hit and miss in my experience! Worth a quick look before heading to the Haarlem history section.”
