Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen

Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen is the first publicly accessible art depot in the world and is located next to Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in the Museumpark in Rotterdam. In the depot, visitors can see the result of 173 years of collecting. More than 151,000 collected artworks are stored together, arranged and structured in fourteen depot spaces with five climates. Besides the objects, all the work involved in managing and maintaining a collection can be seen.

The depot has a (literally) stunning exterior and a spectacular interior. When visitors take the elevator to the sixth floor, they are in for a special experience. On the roof of the depot, you not only have a panorama over the city, but you will also find restaurant Renilde and room Coert. Both are located in a green oasis at nearly 40 meters high.

Coert can be booked separately for events, but it is also possible to exclusively reserve the entire sixth floor. This increases the capacity to a maximum of 300 guests and allows for a more extensive program. We work with external partners for furniture and decoration, which means that each event can be organized according to personal wishes and taste. This makes every event unique!

The culinary aspect for each event is provided by the in-house kitchen brigade of Renilde. Sustainability plays an important role within the depot, and within the food concept, this translates into the use of as many local and seasonal products as possible. Just like in Renilde, we work with a carte blanche menu for events, allowing the availability of products to determine the menu. Of course, we also offer various drinks arrangements, lunches, and receptions. 

It is also possible to book a guided tour of the depot during an event. Dressed in a lab coat, you will go into the building with a guide and visit one of the depot spaces. A unique experience that you won't find anywhere else.
