Belvédère is the first monument for intangible heritage in the Netherlands. We make the (personal) stories of people and communities within the contemporary city, visible for a broad audience to experience. The characteristic building (anno 1894) in Katendrecht, a neighbourhood in the south of Rotterdam, has an illustrious history. From grand café and dance palace, cinema and wrestling arena, hiding place during WW2, a Greek nightclub, artist’s residency and neighbourhood museum: many people left their traces here. Storyhouse Belvédère wants to facilitate such encounters and new connections, between citizens and visitors from far and near, between present, past and future. Open: daily from 11 - 17 pm (and when the door is open). Admission free. Feel free and welcome to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, visit one of the exhibitions or enjoy a lunch made by one of our neighbourhood chefs from the People’s Kitchen.
During Museumnacht010 visit our new Belvédère Storydepot at Fenix (Veerlaan 21b).
Celebrate Museumnacht010 at Depot of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. Wander the zigzagging staircases of the iconic building and enjoy art and performances spread across six floors.
Old school hip-hop dominates the ground floor, with Pete Philly & Perquisite as the night’s headliners. Kesia Smit sets the vibe before handing over to DJ Cutnice and Ray Escobar, who will turn up the energy and keep the crowd dancing.
