Art & Architecture Walk

Art and Architecture Walk presents Rotterdam’s open-air art collection alongside its architectural highlights. Led by local architects and artists, the tour shows how art and architecture are integrated into the city’s streets, squares, and public spaces.

The route passes landmarks such as Central Station, Theater Square, and the post-war Lijnbaan district. In the Museum Quarter, participants see the Depot of Museum Boijmans, one of the city’s newest icons.
