As all football matches, carnival processions and concerts have been cancelled, the Vincentre has taken the decision to remain closed until Monday 1 June.
By taking this action, the Vincentre is supporting the request that all residents of Brabant should restrict social contact for the coming week. This will put the safety of our visitors, but also of our own volunteers, first.
The management hopes for your understanding and we look forward to welcoming you later this year.
“Did Van Gogh really stand here, on this very spot?”, asks an incredulous visitor to the guide. Yes, he really stood here. And he did so while making this painting”, replies the guide.
The visitor tries to comprehend this. “Wow” is the only thing he can say. It touches him. Nuenen. What an experience!
