Teylers Museum, is the Netherlands' first and oldest museum. Unique is the historical presentation of its collections, largely unchanged since the late 18th century. Teylers Museum aims at enabling the contemporary interest in art and knowledge from his unique legacy of the Enlightenment. This legacy includes not only exceptional collections, an authentic listed building and a rich history, but also a way of thinking that is characterized by an urge for innovation and discovery and sharing knowledge to improve the world.
