Huis van Het Boek, also known as the "House of the Book," is the oldest book museum in the world, located in the heart of The Hague (Den Haag). This fascinating museum is entirely dedicated to the art of the book, from calligraphy to typographic characters, from artisanal bindings to ancient and modern printing techniques.
The collection includes precious medieval manuscripts, incunabula, rare editions, artist's books, and printing tools. An ideal place for those who love the history of writing and editorial design, the museum also offers temporary exhibitions that explore the relationship between written word, image, and technological innovation.
Housed in an elegant historic building, Huis van Het Boek is easily accessible and offers a suggestive and refined environment. Each visit is a journey through the evolution of the book as a cultural and artistic object.
The museum regularly organizes guided tours, bookbinding, calligraphy, and printing workshops, as well as thematic events that involve both adults and children. It is a must-visit for book lovers, designers, artists, and students.
