Helpfulness
The Van Gogh house in Nieuw Amsterdam (in the municipality of Emmen) is the only house in the Netherlands where Vincent van Gogh has lived and worked, which can be visited. At the end of 1883 he lived two months in the logement of Hendrik Scholte in Nieuw-Amsterdam/Veenoord. A part of this logement is rebuilt in the authentic style of a caf?-restaurant anno 1880.
The room where Vincent has made his paintings looks like the painter can be back any moment from a walk. Except the room where he worked and lived you can watch a film showing his life and history.
In South East Drenthe are many places to find where Van Gogh has made his drawings and paintings. Excursions to these places can be organised. Known are the draw bridge in Nieuw Amsterdam, the tiny church in Zweeloo and the traditional boat, the so-called snikke.
Opening times are from wednesday till sunday, 1.00 pm - 5.00 pm. Entrance fee is 4,50 euro. The address is Van Goghstraat 1, 7844 NP Veenoord/Nieuw-Amsterdam
Directions:
By car: A37 Hoogeveen-German border, turn off at Veenoord/Nieuw-Amsterdam.
By train: 4 minutes walk from the station Nieuw-Amsterdam (on the line Zwolle - Emmen).
