For Het Nieuwe Instituut, the health and safety of our visitors and employees is paramount. Due to the recent developments concerning COVID-19 and the associated restrictions on travel to the USA and the organization of public events in museums, the institute has decided to close the building and Sonneveld House up until 1 June.

As far as possible, the institute is continuing its programme of activities in digital form. More information on this will be available shortly at: hetnieuweinstituut.nl/en/live

Het Nieuwe Instituut is following developments closely and will open its doors again as soon as possible. 

Located in the heart of Rotterdam, Het Nieuwe Instituut is about a 15-minute walk from Rotterdam CS train station. The institute is part of the Museumpark and is diagonally opposite the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum.

Getting to Het Nieuwe Instituut using public transport is easy. You can take the metro (to Eendrachtsplein), tram 7 (to Eendrachtsplein or Museumpark), tram 4 (to Eendrachtsplein) or bus 44 (to Wytemaweg).
