Van Gogh in Brabant
North Brabant is where Vincent van Gogh grew from a wanna-be painter to a master painter. Here you find the heritage he left his mark on and the landscape that inspired him. The Van Gogh Cycle Route takes you through his beloved North Brabant as if you are in an open-air museum.
A trip through his life takes you from the house where he was born in Zundert to his original works of art in the Noordbrabants Museum. And nowhere is his story so palpable as in Nuenen, known for his breakthrough painting ‘The Potato Eaters’. Visit the Van Gogh Village Museum and explore in the North Brabant that stole the artist’s heart.
