To get to know Piet Mondriaan, most of the aficionados of abstract art go to the largest Mondrian collection in the world - the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag - which is home to 300 of his works.

But the Mondriaan House in Amersfoort, the house where Piet Mondriaan was born in 1872, is unique in how it brings knowledge of Mondriaans' life to the visitor. You may feel a more personal approach in this permanent exhibition about Mondriaan’s life as an artist and his work. The building of the Christian primary school, where the father of Mondriaan was headmaster, has also been incorporated in the museum building.
