As the main museum in Utrecht, it would be a mistake to leave the Centraal Museum off of your vacation itinerary. It’s wide-ranging collection that features almost exclusively locally produced works of art has drawn visitors from near and far since the museum was first opened in 1838. One of the key features of the Centraal Museum is its collection of paintings by Joachim Wtewael, a famed Northern Mannerist, which is by far the largest in the world. Another is the thousand-year-old Utrecht Ship, a part of the Stadsgeschiedenis collection, which was found in the 1930s near the Van Hoornekade.
