Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen
Part gallery, part mirror to the city’s soul. Art stored, revealed, and reimagined inside a silver vessel in the sky.
WHERE: between Willemsplein (north) and Wilhelminaplein (south)
Just a five-minute walk from the hotel, the Erasmusbrug – affectionately known as “The Swan” – connects north and south Rotterdam in sweeping white steel. Designed by Ben van Berkel and opened in 1996, the bridge is both an engineering marvel and a cultural symbol of the city’s forward-facing identity. Whether you walk, cycle, or photograph it at sunset, it’s a must-see for every visitor.
