Depot Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is the engine room of the museum. From the outside the building is a mirror cladded pot, from the inside the treasure room of Rotterdam. The collection of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen consists of more than 151,000 art works, conserved and cared for in the depot. It gives the visitor a look behind the scenes of the museum. In the depot, fourteen climate-controlled compartments are equipped with racks, shelves and cabinets for all different artworks. There are depots for paintings, metal objects, for organic and non-organic materials, and black-and-white and colour photography. The depot compartments have climate control; the temperature and humidity are kept stable. From the circulation route, the stairs and the lift you can see the artworks from a variety of angles. Accompanied by a guide, you can also enter a storage compartment, or visit the building on your own with the depot app. The app contains valuable information about the conservation and management of the collection, as well as information about the artworks. From the roof garden there is a magnificent view of the skyline of the ever-changing city of Rotterdam.
