Fotomuseum Den Haag
Fotomuseum Den Haag aims to be a place where people can find space and peace to relax and discover the complexity, meanings and context of photography and to look attentively at art, themselves, the environment and the world. Fotomuseum Den Haag is located within a 10-minute walking distance from Hotel Bries.
With the idea that photography is an art form, Kunstmuseum Den Haag started exhibiting photography in the late 1950s, as one of the first museums in the Netherlands. The former director Louis Wijsenbeek (1912-1985) brought World Press Photo to the Kunstmuseum for several years. The relatively unknown New Yorker Peter Fink had the first solo exhibition as a photographer in 1956. His work is part of the tradition of post-war humanistic photography. This was a significant start, as this type of photography still holds important values in the collection and exhibitions of the present day.

Museum Beelden aan zee
Museum Beelden aan Zee was founded in 1994 by the collector couple Theo Scholten and Lida Scholten-Miltenburg. As the only museum in the Netherlands exclusively dedicated to modern and contemporary (inter)national sculptures, its collection ranges from portraits to monumental, larger-than-life sculptures. The original theme is the human figure, with artists seeking to unravel both its physical appearance and its psyche. The human figure has been the most versatile subject for centuries, and artists and sculptors have taken it as their central theme. A wide range of materials are used, from bronze, stone and ceramics to foam, plastic, glass, textiles and iron.
