John BarnhamFebruary 28, 2016Esher was a genius and this is a novel place to house his work. It's could just do with being a bit slicker.
Sofia SchukinaJuly 28, 2013Entrance fee is 9 euro for adults. Some discounts are available for kids, students and seniors. Art of Escher is amazing as well as the building where museum is located.
B. Aaron TalbotJanuary 14, 2017really three museums in one: fantastic escher collection, the palace is also notable and has descriptions throughout, and the chandeliers in the rooms are by a dutch artist and well worth seeing too
Taylor MollAugust 12, 2019Great for kids. If you don’t have kids, expect a lot of kids. Lighting in the museum makes photographing the prints difficult. Great gift shop.
Polina FlegontovnaAugust 18, 2015I love Escher's work! They also have an illusion room where you can have your picture taken as a giant :)
- Haags UitburoSeptember 25, 2011Mind-boggling! The works of the great Dutch artist M.C. Escher defy reality big time. This museum, a former royal winter palace, shows them all. Don't forget to check out the virtual reality devices! Read more
Nicky WormhoudtMarch 22, 2016Eternity and infinity, Escher's main themes. Great pictures where math and art go hand in hand.
Rafaël DerksenSeptember 6, 2015Awesome building & Escher rules!! Not only looking at art also experiencing it!
Julia ScherbakovaJuly 3, 2013museumkaart not accepted, but so worth visiting! save some time for the top floor with brain-bashing games and multimedia! True Escher!
Dorit COctober 30, 2015broad range of Escher's works, in a totally unrelated but still interesting historic environment
Veronika BanMay 1, 2012Great 3rd floor with optical illusions!! Can really make your day if you are at least a teeny-weeny bit into art!
Fabio MuzzupappaJanuary 3, 2016Without limits in his masterpieces #Tropea #Calabria #Acquadeglidei...which is where the story began
Andy TiderJune 3, 2018Totally *not* worth your money. It was €10/person and we were done in 10 minutes. Also, most of the works are reproductions. Lame.
