Escher in Het Paleis is a museum in The Hague, the Netherlands , which exhibits the works of Dutch graphic artist MC Escher.

Escher in Het Paleis is housed in the Lange Voorhout Palace , a former royal residence from the 18th century. The first and second floors house exhibits showing the palace's royal period.

Escher in Het Paleis presents a permanent exhibition of a large number of woodcuts and lithographs by MC Escher , including the famous Air and Water (birds become fish) prints; Belvedere (the inside of a madness); Waterfall (where the water seems to flow upwards); Drawing (two hands drawing each other). Escher in Het Paleis shows the first beautiful Italian landscapes, the numerous mirror prints and a choice from the tessellation designs, also the three versions of the Metamorphosis, from the first small, to the third, of 7 meters. This is shown in a circle. It highlights the museum's new take on MC Escher's work.
