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 activities involved in the management and maintenance of 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 of the city, but you also find restaurant Renilde and hall Coert. Both are located in a green oasis at almost 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, making a more extensive program possible. We work with external partners for furniture and decoration, which has the advantage that each event can be organized according to individual wishes and tastes. This makes every event unique!

The culinary aspect for every 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 an à la carte menu for events, where we let the availability of products determine the menu. Of course, we also offer various drink packages, lunches, and appetizers. 

It is also possible to book a guided tour of the depot during an event. Clad in a lab coat, you will enter the building with a guide and visit one of the depot spaces. A unique experience that you cannot have anywhere else.
