The Royal Collections of the Netherlands regularly loan items for exhibitions in the Netherlands and abroad. The map of the Netherlands on this website shows just some of the places where objects from the Royal Collections of the Netherlands are currently on show. And as time goes on the collection will be added to online, and more and more loaned items will appear on the map.

Conditions

The official request for a loan from the Royal Collections of the Netherlands should be submitted no later than four months before the opening of the exhibition in question.

So we recommend that before you submit an official loan request, you contact us to discuss the possibilities.
